Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 172 m² the property is well over the postcode median (123 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £485,000 is 34.2% above the 2007 sale price.
