ASHGROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ASHGROVE sales between December 1997 and July 2010 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 May 2005 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might ASHGROVE be worth now?

ASHGROVE might now be worth an estimated £244,509.

This is based on house price inflation of 39.7%, between July 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 39.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ASHGROVE of £175,000 on 5th July 2010. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £244,509 over the thirteen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ASHGROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The July 2010 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ASHGROVE has not materially changed since July 2010.
