It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 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. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£250/sq ft) was about 16.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 37 m² it's 27.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (51 m² median across 28 EPCs).
