Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £269,297. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Reading are now selling for between £3,710 and £4,740 per square metre (£344 and £440 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 78 m², this implies a valuation between £289,000 and £370,000. Treat this as context only.
