Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 is 50.6% below the 2021 sale of £310,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£655/sq ft) was about 241.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 44 m² it sits well below the postcode median (69 m² across 26 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Sold January 2021 for £310,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
