It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (58 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 is 40.7% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£337/sq ft) was about 34.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
