16 HIGHDOWN 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 16 HIGHDOWN sales from August 1999 and October 2024 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 August 1999 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 16 HIGHDOWN be worth now?

16 HIGHDOWN might now be worth an estimated £438,509.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.3%, between October 2024 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 0.3% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 HIGHDOWN of £440,000 on 24th October 2024. For the value to have decreased from £440,000 to £438,509 over the ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The size, condition, and specification of 16 HIGHDOWN has not materially changed since October 2024.
