What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued that the ground floor front shop (estate agent) should be valued at £10,450 by excluding a 7.5m² common reception area and excluding the return frontage from the valuation. The tribunal found that the disputed area was not a common area essential to other tenants, was not clearly defined as separate from the shop, and should be included in the valuation. The tribunal also determined that the return frontage should be included as beneficial for displaying properties. The tribunal upheld the Valuation Officer's valuation at £14,250.
