1 POPLAR DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 1 POPLAR DRIVE sales between August 1997 and February 2025 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 2018 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the February 2025 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
