Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 270 Highfield Road is modelled from its 211 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 0DP.

- 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 270 Highfield Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

The latest one for 270 Highfield Road was lodged in April 2016 at band E and expired in April 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let.

- 270 Highfield Road is in council tax band F. 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.
