Held since August 2007 — that's 19 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. At 36 m² it sits well below the postcode median (59 m² across 54 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£364/sq ft) was about 59.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
