Held since April 2008 — that's 18 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 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (110 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 is 26.7% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£597/sq ft) was about 86.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
