It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 41 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 is 30.6% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£193/sq ft) was about 216.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
