Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £484,137. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Leighton Buzzard are now selling for between £3,680 and £4,790 per square metre (£341 and £445 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 88 m², this implies a valuation between £324,000 and £422,000. Treat this as context only. For a valuation using hand-picked comparable sales, use the Advanced search tool — create a shortlist of similar condition homes, then export a valuation report.
