Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £520,983. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Bermondsey are now selling for between £6,520 and £8,670 per square metre (£605 and £805 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 58 m², this implies a valuation between £378,000 and £503,000. Treat this as context only.
