The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 ORCHARD FARM CLOSE sales from October 2012 and March 2020 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 October 2012 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.
8 ORCHARD FARM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £314,929.
This is based on house price inflation of 31.2%, between March 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 31.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 ORCHARD FARM CLOSE of £240,000 on 26th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £314,929 over the five years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
