It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £324,000 is 22.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£271/sq ft) was about 27.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
