How the estimate is made
The estimate for 20 Homestead Way is modelled from its 162 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in MK45 3GN.

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 20 Homestead Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Area figures
