3 DOLPHIN CLOSE 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 three 3 DOLPHIN CLOSE sales between August 1998 and December 2024 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 June 2013 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 3 DOLPHIN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 0.6%, between December 2024 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 0.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 DOLPHIN CLOSE of £630,000 on 4th December 2024. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £633,527 over the one year and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
