Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 is 19.9% below the 2009 sale of £146,146, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£323/sq ft) was about 29.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 42 m² it's 16% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (50 m² median across 76 EPCs).
