5 RIVER VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 RIVER VIEW sales between January 2002 and October 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 August 2003 sale was for 70% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it rises to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.

What might 5 RIVER VIEW be worth now?

5 RIVER VIEW might now be worth an estimated £777,172.

This is based on house price inflation of 57%, between October 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 57% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 RIVER VIEW of £495,000 on 15th October 2010. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £777,172 over the fifteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 RIVER VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The October 2010 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 RIVER VIEW has not materially changed since October 2010.
