Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £79,537. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Darwen are now selling for between £1,330 and £2,250 per square metre (£123 and £209 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 75 m², this implies a valuation between £100,000 and £169,000. Treat this as context only.
