Today's modelled estimate of £172,000 is 13.1% below the 2007 sale of £197,995, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£263/sq ft) was about 17.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since September 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.
