Held since April 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 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £208,000 sits 51.8% above the 2008 sale of £137,000.
