How the estimate is made
The estimate for 253 Harborne Park Road is modelled from its 152 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B17 0BJ. 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.
