Today's modelled estimate of £213,000 is 57.4% below the 2007 sale of £500,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£2,323/sq ft) was about 1161.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since October 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 20 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
