Held since June 2008 — that's 18 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 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 sits 55.2% above the 2008 sale of £71,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 20.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 54 m² it's 25% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (72 m² median across 13 EPCs).
