Your note and figure are shown publicly on this page.
The estimate for 71a is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RG1 5RA. 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.

71a has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
That can mean the property has never traded since the registry began publishing in 1995, was a new build that hasn't been registered yet, or is held in the same hands long-term.
Median price across the last 5 sales in RG1 5RA: £750,000 (2022–2017).

Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 5 units on file.
One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2025. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
