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 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £187,000 is 28.1% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£124/sq ft) was about 15.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
