It hasn't traded since December 2007, 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. At 119 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £125,000 is 16.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 49.8% below the postcode norm.
