Thank you for the info. Yes I have seen that before. I believe the guy who bought 80 Grange mill Road for £185k got a reasonably good price as in general the asking house price for 3BR house in this area is over 200k as shown here.

The price will only be "fixed" when contracts are exchanged.
If it's been on the market and not sold since 2010 then I would think there must be room for negotiation.0 -

Doesn't matter if the asking price is £500k, it's what they sell for that counts.0 -
I'd put in an opening offer of £175k. Chances are the EA will say they'll try and they will come back with something along the lines of they are looking closer to the £185k. Then say this my final offer I can manage and offer the £180k.
It's been up since 2010 and they haven't sold, if they really want to move they'll buy your hand off fr £180k.0
