Held since July 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 189 m² the property is well over the postcode median (141 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £546,000 sits 374.8% above the 1996 sale of £115,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 74.2% below the postcode norm.
