Held since August 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. At 67 m² it sits well below the postcode median (115 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 is 26.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£171/sq ft) was about 21.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
