Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 80 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 sits 58.4% above the 2009 sale of £161,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£187/sq ft) was about 31.6% below the postcode norm.
