Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £354,544. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Clapton are now selling for between £6,050 and £7,700 per square metre (£562 and £715 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 42 m², this implies a valuation between £254,000 and £323,000. Treat this as context only.
