How the estimate is made
The estimate for 53 Ashleigh Road is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SA2 8EE. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 53 Ashleigh Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 53 Ashleigh Road was lodged in November 2011 at band C and expired in November 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records

Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from SA2 8EE.
Council tax band
53 Ashleigh Road is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
