Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £230,568. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Bury St Edmunds are now selling for between £2,930 and £4,090 per square metre (£272 and £379 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 36 m², this implies a valuation between £105,000 and £147,000. Treat this as context only.
