Valuations

There is some confusion over transactions. Woodville was sold for £700,000 in 2002. The present owners have informed us that they purchased the property in a derelict state in 2008 and have restored it to its 19th century state. However, there are transactions on record for 18 October 2019, when Woodville was sold for £1,650,000 and The Glass House for £290,000. A further sale of The Barn, Woodville, Mont des Louanns (which joins Rue de La Hague) for £640,000 in 2020 is also on record
