Held since December 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 150 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 46 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,368,000 sits 631.6% above the 1996 sale of £187,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£116/sq ft) was about 79.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
