28 LARKSMEAD 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 two 28 LARKSMEAD sales from February 2007 and May 2018 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 February 2007 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 28 LARKSMEAD be worth now?

28 LARKSMEAD might now be worth an estimated £372,263.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.1%, between May 2018 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 22.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 28 LARKSMEAD of £305,000 on 11th May 2018. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £372,263 over the seven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 28 LARKSMEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The May 2018 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 28 LARKSMEAD has not materially changed since May 2018.
