The estimate for 172a is modelled from its 37 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WV3 0LQ. 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.

172a has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
