Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 20% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 is 29.4% above the 2007 sale price.
