Held since August 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £235,000 sits 51.6% above the 2008 sale of £155,000. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2008.
