27 THE ELLIPSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27 THE ELLIPSE sales between August 2001 and October 2014 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 2011 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might 27 THE ELLIPSE be worth now?

27 THE ELLIPSE might now be worth an estimated £414,859.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.7%, between October 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Torfaen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 53.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 THE ELLIPSE of £270,000 on 27th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £414,859 over the nine years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 27 THE ELLIPSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torfaen local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
