Held since December 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 32 m² it sits well below the postcode median (46 m² across 47 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£286/sq ft) was about 102.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
