Today's modelled estimate of £269,000 is 32.1% below the 2008 sale of £396,160, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£433/sq ft) was about 258.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in June 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (179 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
