The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 MAIDEN CASTLE ROAD sales from April 1997 and January 1999 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 1997 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the January 1999 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.
38 MAIDEN CASTLE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £679,145.
This is based on house price inflation of 301.9%, between January 1999 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).
