Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for The Hollies is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR3 0BL. 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.
