Held since September 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 44 m² it sits well below the postcode median (73 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 41.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£158/sq ft) was about 22.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
