Held since February 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 158 m² the property is well over the postcode median (112 m² across 54 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £298,000 is 33.6% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 15.9% below the postcode norm.
