It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£358/sq ft) was about 633.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 30 m² it's 15.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (36 m² median across 10 EPCs).
