Held since April 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. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £390,000 sits 69.6% above the 2007 sale of £229,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£445/sq ft) was about 30.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 48 m² it's 22.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (62 m² median across 9 EPCs).
