CHESTNUTS 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 two CHESTNUTS sales from May 2000 and June 2014 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 2000 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might CHESTNUTS be worth now?

CHESTNUTS might now be worth an estimated £449,166.

This is based on house price inflation of 47.3%, between June 2014 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 47.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHESTNUTS of £305,000 on 23rd June 2014. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £449,166 over the nine years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHESTNUTS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The June 2014 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHESTNUTS has not materially changed since June 2014.
