How the estimate is made

The estimate for 1 Ardentinny is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in AL1 3BZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

Where sold prices come from

Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Ardentinny. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Reading the EPC

Planning records

Area figures

Council tax band

1 Ardentinny is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
