Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for 189a is modelled from its 46 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BN1 8LE. 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.

189a has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
