Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £407,000 sits 59% above the 2009 sale of £256,000. 8 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include new windows and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
