2 LYCROME LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 LYCROME LANE sales between May 2003 and October 2017 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 2015 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, which was also at 3% above the HPI.

What might 2 LYCROME LANE be worth now?

2 LYCROME LANE might now be worth an estimated £854,189.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.9%, between October 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 LYCROME LANE of £770,000 on 2nd October 2017. For the value to have increased from £770,000 to £854,189 over the six years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 LYCROME LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The October 2017 sale price of £770,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 LYCROME LANE has not materially changed since October 2017.
