Held since June 2007 — that's 19 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. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 44 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 is 37.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£143/sq ft) was about 132% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
