It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 87 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
