It hasn't traded since January 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. At 26 m² it sits well below the postcode median (48 m² across 79 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 is 24.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£339/sq ft) was about 32.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
