I don't know of a function on Zillow that does this - although I'm no "Zillow pro". However, try calling a local realtor. I'm a real estate broker, so my response may sound like I'm trying to drum up business for my profession. Apologies for this, BUT your local agents have access to the MLS and can run a very quick search for the area and time period of interest.
If you mention that you may be interested in buying or selling in the next year, but are not yet actively looking, that should be enough incentive for an agent to take the time to run this very simple search. They'll probably want to keep in touch with you. If you're clear about your time frame and real estate needs (i.e., not looking to do anything now but I might sell next April), that should keep the agent from hounding you (assuming that you're worried about that, and this is why you're currently collecting your own information online). And when you ARE ready to buy or sell, I'm sure that agent will be very glad you came back to him/her.
Whatever your current plans are - Good luck!

Getting useful info from a local agent is a good way to see how well the agent responds to your request. It's a good way to see how that agent works. When you are ready to sell, you have a good place to start.

You should definately contact a local realtor in your area. It wont cost you anything. They can jump onto the mls and email you exactly what you need.

This would be something that most Realtors would do as a service to prospective clients. Typically most people are inquiring about the current market and not a value that previously existed. You could also enlist the service of an appraiser.
