20 THE BEECHES 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 four 20 THE BEECHES sales between March 1996 and June 2012 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 September 2002 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 20 THE BEECHES be worth now?

20 THE BEECHES might now be worth an estimated £393,144.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.8%, between June 2012 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 58.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 THE BEECHES of £247,500 on 18th June 2012. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £393,144 over the thirteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
