Held since December 2008 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced England HPI: 17.5% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £332,000 sits 54.4% above the 2008 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 47.2% below the postcode norm. At 160 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
