  • At a sale price of £6.26M, we expect this property to be in a similar condition to the neighbouring properties.
  • Most properties in the local area tend to sell within quite a small price range when using the cost per square foot as the valuation method - this property is within the normal expected price range for this area and it is why we think it is in a reasonable condition.

  • If we valued this property using the average cost per square foot (CPSF) - it would be worth £6.43M. For it to sell for this amount, we would expect it to be in a similar state decoratively to the average property here and also have a similar sized plot of land.
  • We use survey data provided by RICS qualified surveyors to obtain the property's size. This is calculated in a slightly different way to how an estate agent will measure a property as it only includes habitable space.
  • To calculate the price per square foot, you divide the property's sale price by its total square footage.
