It hasn't traded since August 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (54 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £169,000 is 13.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£419/sq ft) was about 55% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
