It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

At 194 m² it's 24.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (156 m² median across 5 EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 0 refused.
