Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £2,487,910. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Piccadilly Circus are now selling for between £12,960 and £17,160 per square metre (£1,204 and £1,594 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 193 m², this implies a valuation between £2,501,000 and £3,312,000. Treat this as context only.
