Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 85 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 74.7% above the 2009 sale of £142,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 25.2% below the postcode norm.
