Held since March 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 is 29.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 61.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
