How the estimate is made
The estimate for 25 Brookhouse Avenue is modelled from its 82 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BL4 9LY. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 25 Brookhouse Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 25 Brookhouse Avenue was lodged in May 2014 at band F and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

Area figures
