How the estimate is made
The estimate for Woolcombers is modelled from its 141 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in IP7 7EW. 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 Woolcombers. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to Woolcombers. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 14 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP7 7EW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
