Held since February 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 £195,000 sits 56.1% above the 2007 sale of £124,950. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
