Today's modelled estimate of £437,000 is 16.8% below the 2022 sale of £525,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look.

- 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 3 Acton Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Council tax band
- 3 Acton Close is in council tax band E. 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.
