1 CAPITOL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 CAPITOL CLOSE sales between February 2014 and April 2017 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 January 2015 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 1 CAPITOL CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 26.5%, between April 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 CAPITOL CLOSE of £425,000 on 25th April 2017. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £537,565 over the eight years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
