8 LONG MEADOW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Ribble local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 LONG MEADOW sales from August 2009 and August 2014 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 August 2009 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 8 LONG MEADOW be worth now?

8 LONG MEADOW might now be worth an estimated £324,456.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.9%, between August 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the South Ribble local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 50.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LONG MEADOW of £215,000 on 22nd August 2014. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £324,456 over the nine years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
