16 HIGHFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 HIGHFIELD sales from March 2001 and May 2016 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 March 2001 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 16 HIGHFIELD be worth now?

16 HIGHFIELD might now be worth an estimated £347,686.

This is based on house price inflation of 40.2%, between May 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Torridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 40.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 HIGHFIELD of £248,000 on 20th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £248,000 to £347,686 over the seven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
