Held since July 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 20 m² it sits well below the postcode median (60 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £128,000 is 10.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£537/sq ft) was about 198.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
