Across 2002–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £230,000 is 54% below the 2022 sale of £500,000, 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 (£929/sq ft) was about 329.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Most recent transfer: April 2022 at £500,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
