Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 is 18.1% below the 2007 sale of £298,000, 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 (£322/sq ft) was about 164.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
