Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in July 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 72 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £361,000 sits 76.1% above the 2008 sale of £205,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£265/sq ft) was about 15.6% below the postcode norm.
