Held since March 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. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 25% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 33.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 24.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
