Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 is 12.4% below the 2007 sale of £294,500, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£408/sq ft) was about 149.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since November 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 67 m² it sits well below the postcode median (97 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
