Held since March 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 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2003–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 57.6% above the 2008 sale of £217,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£188/sq ft) was about 28% below the postcode norm.
