Held since September 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. Today's modelled estimate of £327,000 sits 55.7% above the 2007 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£201/sq ft) was about 16.1% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2021.
