How the estimate is made
The estimate for Barn Owl Cottage is modelled from its 167 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in ST21 6RP.

Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Barn Owl Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Area figures
