It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 254 m² the property is well over the postcode median (130 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £689,000 sits 53.1% above the 2008 sale of £450,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£165/sq ft) was about 27.1% below the postcode norm.
