Held since January 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 82 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 14.8% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£153/sq ft) was about 16.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused.
