Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £534,000 sits 73.4% above the 2009 sale of £308,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£392/sq ft) was about 60.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (143 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.
