About Lindens

At 24 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Lindens (24–35 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 sits 73.3% above the 2009 sale of £60,000.

At 24 m² it sits well below the postcode median (56 m² across 42 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
