Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £182,679. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Bournemouth are now selling for between £2,690 and £3,680 per square metre (£249 and £341 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 84 m², this implies a valuation between £226,000 and £309,000. Treat this as context only.
