It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £113,000 sits 52.7% above the 2008 sale of £74,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 63.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 23 m² it's 17.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (28 m² median across 49 EPCs).
