COBB GATE 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 three COBB GATE sales between April 1998 and November 2013 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 June 2009 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it rises to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.

What might COBB GATE be worth now?

COBB GATE might now be worth an estimated £1,036,543.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.2%, between November 2013 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 50.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for COBB GATE of £690,000 on 19th November 2013. For the value to have increased from £690,000 to £1,036,543 over the ten years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of COBB GATE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The November 2013 sale price of £690,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of COBB GATE has not materially changed since November 2013.
