It hasn't traded since June 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 153 m² the property is well over the postcode median (99 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 50.8% above the 2007 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 23.9% below the postcode norm.
