It hasn't traded since January 2009, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 sits 83.2% above the 2009 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 54% below the postcode norm. At 77 m² it's 25.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (103 m² median across 23 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
