4 SHIRLEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 SHIRLEY CLOSE sales from May 1998 and September 2017 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 May 1998 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 4 SHIRLEY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 27.2%, between September 2017 and February 2025, for semi-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 27.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 SHIRLEY CLOSE of £305,000 on 18th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £387,878 over the eight years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
