1 SYLVAN 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 two 1 SYLVAN CLOSE sales from January 2007 and October 2022 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 2007 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 1 SYLVAN CLOSE be worth now?

1 SYLVAN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £327,479.

This is based on house price deflation of 6.4%, between October 2022 and December 2024, 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 6.4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 SYLVAN CLOSE of £350,000 on 21st October 2022. For the value to have decreased from £350,000 to £327,479 over the one year and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
