1 THE LIMES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 THE LIMES sales between April 1996 and March 2021 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 April 1999 sale was for 49% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 1 THE LIMES be worth now?

1 THE LIMES might now be worth an estimated £301,542.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.8%, between March 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE LIMES of £247,500 on 24th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £301,542 over the two years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 THE LIMES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £247,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 THE LIMES has not materially changed since March 2021.
