Held since January 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 154 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £233,000 sits 86.4% above the 2007 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£76/sq ft) was about 21.5% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
