Workshop and Premises, Unit N2 CBBC, Lewis Road, Cardiff CF24 5EL

What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant sought a reduction from £21,500 to £1, contending the property should be valued at £45/m² based on comparable properties and rental evidence in the locality. The Valuation Officer conceded a reduction to £20,750 (£55/m²) after correcting the omission of the heating allowance and including the upper floor storage area. The tribunal allowed the appeal in part to the extent conceded by the Valuation Officer, finding that the upper floor storage area used by the tenant should be included in the valuation, the bespoke valuation scheme for the specific address should be maintained, and £55/m² was the appropriate tone rather than the £45/m² the appellant sought.
