It hasn't traded since August 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £263,000 sits 59.4% above the 2008 sale of £165,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£438/sq ft) was about 89.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (70 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
