BARLEY MOW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BARLEY MOW sales between April 1995 and January 2012 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 1996 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, where it falls to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might BARLEY MOW be worth now?

BARLEY MOW might now be worth an estimated £647,388.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.8%, between January 2012 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 61.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BARLEY MOW of £400,000 on 31st January 2012. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £647,388 over the eleven years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BARLEY MOW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The January 2012 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BARLEY MOW has not materially changed since January 2012.
