The estimate for Archway House is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WD17 1PG. 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.

Archway House has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
