It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 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 £174,000 sits 222.2% above the 2009 sale of £54,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 66.7% below the postcode norm. At 65 m² it sits well below the postcode median (108 m² across 45 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs).
