Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £167,880. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Darlington are now selling for between £1,200 and £2,230 per square metre (£111 and £207 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 80 m², this implies a valuation between £96,000 and £178,000. Treat this as context only.
