It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (89 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £843,000 sits 266.5% above the 2009 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£175/sq ft) was about 30.6% below the postcode norm.
