3 CASTLE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 CASTLE DRIVE sales from April 1998 and April 2020 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 1998 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the April 2020 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 3 CASTLE DRIVE be worth now?

3 CASTLE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £406,183.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.2%, between April 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cornwall local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 CASTLE DRIVE of £314,500 on 24th April 2020. For the value to have increased from £314,500 to £406,183 over the three years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 CASTLE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cornwall local authority area.
• The April 2020 sale price of £314,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 CASTLE DRIVE has not materially changed since April 2020.
