Held since December 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 95 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £463,000 sits 51.8% above the 2007 sale of £305,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£298/sq ft) was about 25.1% below the postcode norm.
