Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 142 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £506,000 sits 68.7% above the 2009 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£197/sq ft) was about 23.3% below the postcode norm.
