It has a recorded floor area of 234 m² (around 2519 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G.

Held since June 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £975,000 sits 51.2% above the 2008 sale of £645,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
