Today's modelled estimate of £392,000 sits 59% above the 2007 sale of £246,500. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 85 m² it's 16.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 18 EPCs).
