12 DOWNSWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 DOWNSWAY sales from July 2004 and May 2014 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 July 2004 sale was for 101% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 101% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 79% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 79% above the HPI.

What might 12 DOWNSWAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 43.1%, between May 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Guildford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 43.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 DOWNSWAY of £1,175,000 on 9th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £1,175,000 to £1,681,797 over the eleven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 DOWNSWAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Guildford local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £1,175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
