Held since November 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. Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 sits 74.3% above the 2009 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 33.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
