56 LYDGATE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 56 LYDGATE LANE sales from September 2009 and February 2016 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 2009 sale was for 137% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 137% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 167% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 167% above the HPI.

What might 56 LYDGATE LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 42.5%, between February 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the County Durham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 42.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 56 LYDGATE LANE of £440,000 on 15th February 2016. For the value to have increased from £440,000 to £626,910 over the seven years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 56 LYDGATE LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The February 2016 sale price of £440,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
