Held since October 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. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 20% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £238,000 is 35.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 23.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
