- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Woodbine Cottage is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B94 6LN.

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