It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 sits 162% above the 2007 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£151/sq ft) was about 30.1% below the postcode norm. At 92 m² it sits well below the postcode median (157 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
