Held since June 2008 — that's 18 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. At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 27 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £343,000 sits 55.9% above the 2008 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 38.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2023.
