Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £186,067. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Velindre are now selling for between £2,060 and £3,110 per square metre (£191 and £288 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 105 m², this implies a valuation between £216,000 and £327,000. Treat this as context only.
