Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £149,418. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Oakwood are now selling for between £2,930 and £3,570 per square metre (£272 and £331 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 70 m², this implies a valuation between £205,000 and £250,000. Treat this as context only.
