The estimate for 8a is modelled from its 161 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB1 7BZ. 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.
