Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £246,475. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Cardiff are now selling for between £2,270 and £2,970 per square metre (£210 and £275 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 106 m², this implies a valuation between £241,000 and £315,000. Treat this as context only.
