Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £121,000 is 42.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£175/sq ft) was about 177.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
