It hasn't traded since April 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 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 sits 54.9% above the 2007 sale of £113,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 44.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (58 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
