Held since May 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (108 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 68.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £113,000 is 43% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 164.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
