Held since March 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. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £137,000 sits 176.8% above the 2007 sale of £49,500. At 28 m² it sits well below the postcode median (55 m² across 8 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). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
