4 PRESTON 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 two 4 PRESTON CLOSE sales from January 1998 and December 2004 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 January 1998 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the December 2004 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 4 PRESTON CLOSE be worth now?

4 PRESTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £432,714.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.7%, between December 2004 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 80.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 PRESTON CLOSE of £239,500 on 16th December 2004. For the value to have increased from £239,500 to £432,714 over the 21 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
