Held since May 2008 — that's 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 sits 64.9% above the 2008 sale of £122,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 22.9% below the postcode norm. At 52 m² it sits well below the postcode median (108 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
