Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in October 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 58 m² the property is well over the postcode median (40 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 is 20% above the 2008 sale price.
