The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 GATCOMBE CLOSE sales from July 1998 and May 2002 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 July 1998 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the May 2002 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
8 GATCOMBE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £250,833.
This is based on house price inflation of 154.7%, between May 2002 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 154.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 GATCOMBE CLOSE of £98,500 on 13th May 2002. For the value to have increased from £98,500 to £250,833 over the 21 years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
