BRACKEN BANK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BRACKEN BANK sales between June 2000 and November 2023 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 July 2004 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might BRACKEN BANK be worth now?

BRACKEN BANK might now be worth an estimated £338,752.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.9%, between November 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRACKEN BANK of £320,000 on 24th November 2023. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £338,752 over the two years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRACKEN BANK has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRACKEN BANK has not materially changed since November 2023.
