Held since May 2008 — that's 18 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. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £313,000 is 11.8% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£634/sq ft) was about 180% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
