It hasn't traded since January 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £340,000 sits 61.9% above the 2007 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 46.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
