8 GALE PARK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 GALE PARK sales between July 1997 and June 2009 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 2001 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the June 2009 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 8 GALE PARK be worth now?

8 GALE PARK might now be worth an estimated £438,861.

This is based on house price inflation of 54%, between June 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 54% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 GALE PARK of £285,000 on 16th June 2009. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £438,861 over the sixteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 GALE PARK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The June 2009 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 GALE PARK has not materially changed since June 2009.
