Held since May 2007 — that's 19 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 25 m² it sits well below the postcode median (57 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £113,000 is 44.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£290/sq ft) was about 24.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
