The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 SCHOOL CLOSE sales between August 2001 and December 2009 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 2006 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.
2 SCHOOL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £696,472.
This is based on house price inflation of 67.8%, between December 2009 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 67.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 SCHOOL CLOSE of £415,000 on 18th December 2009. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £696,472 over the sixteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
