The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 FRENCH MILL LANE sales from December 2017 and July 2024 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 December 2017 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
20 FRENCH MILL LANE might now be worth an estimated £774,146.
