How much cover do people have?

I'm looking at £300,000 buildings and £40,000 contents for a large 3 bedroom semi-detached house.

Does that sound about right?

The rebuild cost should be on one of the survey documents (I think it was on the mortgage valuation that we got). If it is a normal house it is typically a bit less than the price you pay for the house, and you can estimate it using a calculator assuming you know the floor area. For our 3 bed terrace which is listed, rebuild cost is way more than the cost of the house, as you'd have to rebuild it to 1790s standards.
