Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- We don't publish an estimate for 2 Hope Cottages because there is no EPC to tell the model the home's size and specification. The full report sets its records against recent comparable sales in LU2 9QP.
- 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 2 Hope Cottages. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Planning records
