5 THE BEECHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 THE BEECHES sales between November 1998 and October 2023 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 October 2014 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE BEECHES be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 1.8%, between October 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the York local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
