Held since November 2007 — that's 18 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. At 81 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 41 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £159,000 is 17.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 31.4% below the postcode norm.
