We, at Property Filter, decided to display and base our calculation on the EPC data.
​
This is from our experience as Property Investor and feedback from Property Filter Members that floor plans made by agents are not always accurate.
​
Take this property, for example

Looking at the sample EPC data below (which is publicly available), we came up with the measurement of 151 sq.m. This was done by professionals, thus why all measurements come from EPC certificates when we have it.

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document that evaluates the energy efficiency of a property and rates it from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).

It aims to provide information about the property's energy usage, estimated annual energy expenses, and potential environmental impact. EPCs are beneficial for both landlords and tenants as they assist in evaluating legal compliance, energy savings, environmental factors, and overall property value. If you need to obtain an EPC for a specific property, you can usually find it through the Property Filter Platform.

Here is a brief guide on how to locate it.
