Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (126 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £109,000 is 36.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£108/sq ft) was about 33.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
