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. At 456 m² the property is well over the postcode median (172 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 36.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,021,000 sits 89.1% above the 2007 sale of £540,000.
