Held since March 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 sits 89% above the 2008 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£112/sq ft) was about 24.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 83 m² it sits well below the postcode median (120 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
