Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £423,361. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Southampton are now selling for between £2,580 and £3,660 per square metre (£239 and £340 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 89 m², this implies a valuation between £230,000 and £326,000. Treat this as context only.
