Held since January 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. Today's modelled estimate of £789,000 sits 90.1% above the 2008 sale of £415,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£528/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 73 m² it's 20.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 25 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs).
