Held since March 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. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £254,000 sits 98.4% above the 2007 sale of £128,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 21.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
