The estimate for Old Telephone Exchange is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GU5 9HB. 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.

Old Telephone Exchange has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
