Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 12 Hill Farm Way is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 5RD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 12 Hill Farm Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Area figures
