5 CASTERBRIDGE 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 three 5 CASTERBRIDGE CLOSE sales between December 1996 and December 2014 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 November 2002 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 5 CASTERBRIDGE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 42.9%, between December 2014 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 42.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 CASTERBRIDGE CLOSE of £320,000 on 9th December 2014. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £457,384 over the eleven years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
