Held since December 2009 — that's 16 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 34 m² it sits well below the postcode median (53 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 14% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £140,000 is 30.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£292/sq ft) was about 23.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
