Held since January 2008 — 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. Across 2003–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 sits 60% above the 2008 sale of £187,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 17.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 75 m² it's 26.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (102 m² median across 33 EPCs).
