Held since September 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 44 m² it's 20% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (55 m² median across 21 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £184,000 sits 67.3% above the 2009 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 19.9% below the postcode norm.
