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 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (45 m² across 8 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 £379,000 sits 244.5% above the 2007 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 38.8% below the postcode norm.
