Held since December 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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 is 41.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 25.2% below the postcode norm.
