Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 44 m² it's 29% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (62 m² median across 81 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 79% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 is 29.1% above the 2009 sale price.
