The estimate for Bottom Floor Flat is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DL3 7HT. 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.

Bottom Floor Flat has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
That can mean the property has never traded since the registry began publishing in 1995, was a new build that hasn't been registered yet, or is held in the same hands long-term.
