2 THE BALK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Barnsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 THE BALK sales between April 2004 and May 2019 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 October 2008 sale was for 98% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 98% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 100% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 100% above the HPI.

What might 2 THE BALK be worth now?

2 THE BALK might now be worth an estimated £541,924.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.2%, between May 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Barnsley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 37.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE BALK of £395,000 on 13th May 2019. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £541,924 over the six years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 THE BALK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Barnsley local authority area.
• The May 2019 sale price of £395,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 THE BALK has not materially changed since May 2019.
