Held since August 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. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (51 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 is 38.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£352/sq ft) was about 25.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
