1 BIRCH GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Darlington local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BIRCH GROVE sales from February 2006 and February 2020 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the February 2006 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might 1 BIRCH GROVE be worth now?

1 BIRCH GROVE might now be worth an estimated £327,788.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.1%, between February 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Darlington local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 31.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 BIRCH GROVE of £250,000 on 28th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £327,788 over the five years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 BIRCH GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Darlington local authority area.
• The February 2020 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 BIRCH GROVE has not materially changed since February 2020.
