Held since August 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 £738,000 sits 51.4% above the 2007 sale of £487,350. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 18% below the postcode norm. At 162 m² it's 23.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (131 m² median across 7 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs).
