5 THE BEECHES 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 five 5 THE BEECHES sales between March 1998 and December 2013 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 2001 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE BEECHES be worth now?

5 THE BEECHES might now be worth an estimated £392,271.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.9%, between December 2013 and December 2024, 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 50.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE BEECHES of £260,000 on 6th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £260,000 to £392,271 over the eleven years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE BEECHES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The December 2013 sale price of £260,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 THE BEECHES has not materially changed since December 2013.
