About Broghas Cottage

It hasn't traded since October 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.

Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £592,000 sits 97.3% above the 2009 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 37.7% below the postcode norm. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, an annexe and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
