Held since February 2007 — that's 20 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. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 sits 59.5% above the 2007 sale of £168,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£294/sq ft) was about 20.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 53 m² it's 22.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 38 EPCs).
