Held since August 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. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £499,000 sits 72.1% above the 2007 sale of £289,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£539/sq ft) was about 52.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (72 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
