Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £238,669. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Welwyn Garden City are now selling for between £4,860 and £6,300 per square metre (£451 and £585 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 63 m², this implies a valuation between £306,000 and £397,000. Treat this as context only.
