It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£332/sq ft) was about 26.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it's 29.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 59 EPCs).
