Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Hollywood are now selling for between £3,440 and £4,470 per square metre (£319 and £415 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 123 m², this implies a valuation between £423,000 and £550,000. Treat this as context only.
