Google maps blurring

Our house is going up for sale and I've noticed it's weirdly blurred on Google maps. How can I get this removed ?

You can't

The only way to fix it is by getting the image of your blurred house from Google maps, erecting a giant billboard in front of your house and printing the blurred image out and sticking it up there. That way Google will match reality.

You're welcome.

What do want to happen? Google to use the estate agent photo of your house for Google maps?

A quick google tells you there's not much you can do about it. You can try and ask Google to unblur it, but it doesn't sound like people have had much success with that. They're under no obligation to provide the image, so can choose whether they blur it or not.

You can't. They have either done it themselves as it has triggered some privacy algorithm, or someone had asked for it to be blurred for privacy. Our neighbours house had him outside getting tools out of his van, he asked for the image to be blurred.
