5 GAINSBOROUGH DRIVE 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 5 GAINSBOROUGH DRIVE sales from September 2015 and December 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 September 2015 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 113% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 113% above the HPI.

What might 5 GAINSBOROUGH DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 26.1%, between December 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 26.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 GAINSBOROUGH DRIVE of £575,000 on 8th December 2017. For the value to have increased from £575,000 to £725,237 over the eight years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
