Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 12 Bennett Hill Close is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN4 8LR. 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 12 Bennett Hill Close. 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 12 Bennett Hill Close was lodged in February 2016 at band D and expired in February 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.
