2 MINERVA CLOSE 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 three 2 MINERVA CLOSE sales between April 1995 and September 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 April 2010 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 2 MINERVA CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.9%, between September 2016 and February 2025, 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 28.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 MINERVA CLOSE of £319,500 on 30th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £319,500 to £411,876 over the nine years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
