GRANTCHESTER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GRANTCHESTER sales from December 2003 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 December 2003 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the January 2012 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might GRANTCHESTER be worth now?

GRANTCHESTER might now be worth an estimated £249,341.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.2%, between January 2012 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GRANTCHESTER of £150,000 on 6th January 2012. For the value to have increased from £150,000 to £249,341 over the eleven years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GRANTCHESTER has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The January 2012 sale price of £150,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GRANTCHESTER has not materially changed since January 2012.
