The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newcastle-under-Lyme local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 MERLIN WAY sales between June 1998 and October 2018 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 2002 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
16 MERLIN WAY might now be worth an estimated £248,242.
This is based on house price inflation of 32.4%, between October 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Newcastle-under-Lyme local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 32.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 MERLIN WAY of £187,500 on 19th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £187,500 to £248,242 over the seven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
