Held since May 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. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 50.7% above the 2007 sale of £124,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£193/sq ft) was about 20.3% below the postcode norm. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs).
