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.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 125.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
