It has a recorded floor area of 254 m² (around 2734 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900.

How the estimate is made
The estimate for 3 Wilkes Street is modelled from its 254 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in E1 6QF. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 3 Wilkes Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 110 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from E1 6QF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
