Held since July 2008 — that's 18 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. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £140,000 sits 60.9% above the 2008 sale of £87,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£144/sq ft) was about 70.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (82 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
