Held since August 2007 — that's 19 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. At 114 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £378,000 sits 54.3% above the 2007 sale of £245,000.
