It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2011. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £329,000 is 23% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£371/sq ft) was about 252.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
