Today's modelled estimate of £104,000 is 16.8% below the 2008 sale of £124,950, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£228/sq ft) was about 28.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in September 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 51 m² it's 25% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 23 EPCs).
