It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 77 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £161,000 is 28.8% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£151/sq ft) was about 39.4% below the postcode norm.
