Held since December 2007 — 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. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 14% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 53% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
