The estimate for Potters Meadow Cottage is modelled from its 184 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO2 0HH. 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.

Potters Meadow Cottage has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
