Held since December 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.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£249/sq ft) was about 28.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 124 m² it's 16.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (148 m² median across 13 EPCs).
