Held since November 2008 — that's 18 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 49 m² it's 22.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (40 m² median across 22 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £832,000 is 27.4% above the 2008 sale price.
