Today's modelled estimate of £443,000 is 10.5% below the 2007 sale of £495,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£575/sq ft) was about 23.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning application is currently pending a decision in 2018. At 80 m² it sits well below the postcode median (121 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
