FAR ACRES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FAR ACRES sales from September 1996 and September 2011 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 September 1996 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it rises to 104% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 104% above the HPI.

What might FAR ACRES be worth now?

FAR ACRES might now be worth an estimated £813,150.

This is based on house price inflation of 47.8%, between September 2011 and February 2025, for 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 47.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FAR ACRES of £550,000 on 16th September 2011. For the value to have increased from £550,000 to £813,150 over the fourteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FAR ACRES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The September 2011 sale price of £550,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FAR ACRES has not materially changed since September 2011.
