8 POPPYFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 POPPYFIELDS sales between December 1997 and January 2022 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 2017 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 8 POPPYFIELDS be worth now?

8 POPPYFIELDS might now be worth an estimated £382,991.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.4%, between January 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 POPPYFIELDS of £374,000 on 14th January 2022. For the value to have increased from £374,000 to £382,991 over the one year and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 POPPYFIELDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The January 2022 sale price of £374,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 POPPYFIELDS has not materially changed since January 2022.
