It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 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. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 46.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 33.3% below the postcode norm.
