3 LYDCOTT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 LYDCOTT sales from October 1999 and December 2003 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 October 1999 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the December 2003 sale, where it rises to 63% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 63% above the HPI.

What might 3 LYDCOTT be worth now?

3 LYDCOTT might now be worth an estimated £420,125.

This is based on house price inflation of 76.5%, between December 2003 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sunderland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 76.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LYDCOTT of £238,000 on 19th December 2003. For the value to have increased from £238,000 to £420,125 over the 21 years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 LYDCOTT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sunderland local authority area.
• The December 2003 sale price of £238,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 LYDCOTT has not materially changed since December 2003.
