Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £462,000 sits 54% above the 2009 sale of £300,000.
