Held since June 2007 — that's 19 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. Today's modelled estimate of £341,000 sits 111.9% above the 2007 sale of £160,900. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 43.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 114 m² it's 29.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (88 m² median across 3 EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.
