Held since January 2007 — that's 20 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 105 m² it's 29.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (81 m² median across 3 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 is 18.5% above the 2007 sale price.
