Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £135,769. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Bowburn are now selling for between £1,150 and £2,250 per square metre (£106 and £209 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 58 m², this implies a valuation between £67,000 and £130,000. Treat this as context only.
