5 THE CLOSE 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 two 5 THE CLOSE sales from January 1997 and July 2012 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 January 1997 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE CLOSE be worth now?

5 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £518,695.

This is based on house price inflation of 59.6%, between July 2012 and February 2025, 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 59.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE CLOSE of £325,000 on 13th July 2012. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £518,695 over the thirteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The July 2012 sale price of £325,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2012.
