It hasn't traded since October 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. Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 sits 59.4% above the 2008 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£214/sq ft) was about 22.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 76 m² it's 17.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 36 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs).
