It hasn't traded since March 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 £112,000 is 31.8% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£208/sq ft) was about 92.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 38 m² it's 26.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (52 m² median across 12 EPCs).
