Held since April 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. Today's modelled estimate of £152,000 sits 68.9% above the 2007 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 28.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 100 m² it's 29.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 38 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs).
