Held since November 2007 — that's 18 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. At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 2 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £531,000 sits 116.7% above the 2007 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£259/sq ft) was about 29.5% below the postcode norm.
