21 THE DRIFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Kesteven local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 21 THE DRIFT sales from August 2003 and September 2007 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 August 2003 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the September 2007 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 21 THE DRIFT be worth now?

21 THE DRIFT might now be worth an estimated £265,260.

This is based on house price inflation of 46.1%, between September 2007 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North Kesteven local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 THE DRIFT of £181,500 on 27th September 2007. For the value to have increased from £181,500 to £265,260 over the sixteen years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 THE DRIFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Kesteven local authority area.
• The September 2007 sale price of £181,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 21 THE DRIFT has not materially changed since September 2007.
