It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 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 38 m² it's 19.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (47 m² median across 19 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £139,000 is 36.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£249/sq ft) was about 51% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
