Held since July 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 £199,000 sits 77.8% above the 2009 sale of £111,900. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 41 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
