5 DRIFTWOOD GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 DRIFTWOOD GARDENS sales between August 1996 and December 2010 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 July 2004 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the December 2010 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 5 DRIFTWOOD GARDENS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 62.5%, between December 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 62.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 DRIFTWOOD GARDENS of £249,950 on 17th December 2010. For the value to have increased from £249,950 to £406,155 over the fifteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
