Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 is 82.4% below the 2022 sale of £800,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,689/sq ft) was about 755.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 44 m² it sits well below the postcode median (68 m² across 39 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). Sold August 2022 for £800,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
