Held since March 2008 — 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 89 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 23.1% below the postcode norm.
