Across 2001–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 21.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £319,000 is 20.3% below the 2011 sale of £400,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,199/sq ft) was about 353.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since April 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
