14 DICKENS ROAD 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 three 14 DICKENS ROAD sales between December 1997 and May 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 December 2014 sale was for 88% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 88% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it falls to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might 14 DICKENS ROAD be worth now?

14 DICKENS ROAD might now be worth an estimated £328,680.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.3%, between May 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the County Durham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 DICKENS ROAD of £290,000 on 20th May 2022. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £328,680 over the one year and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
