45 MERLIN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 45 MERLIN DRIVE sales between July 2004 and December 2009 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 2006 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might 45 MERLIN DRIVE be worth now?

45 MERLIN DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £367,232.

This is based on house price inflation of 38.6%, between December 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 45 MERLIN DRIVE of £265,000 on 1st December 2009. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £367,232 over the sixteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 45 MERLIN DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The December 2009 sale price of £265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
