Held since September 2007 — that's 19 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. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £539,000 sits 65.8% above the 2007 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£438/sq ft) was about 48.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
