Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 is 10.3% below the 2007 sale of £131,500, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 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. At 52 m² it's 21.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 19 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
