Today's modelled estimate of £135,000 is 50% below the 2022 sale of £270,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£583/sq ft) was about 220.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 43 m² it sits well below the postcode median (63 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £270,000 in March 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
