1 MERRIN HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 MERRIN HILL sales from January 2004 and May 2008 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 2004 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 1 MERRIN HILL be worth now?

1 MERRIN HILL might now be worth an estimated £967,359.

This is based on house price inflation of 72.7%, between May 2008 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Croydon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 72.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 MERRIN HILL of £560,000 on 15th May 2008. For the value to have increased from £560,000 to £967,359 over the seventeen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
