HIGH FIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Test Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGH FIELD sales from December 2019 and February 2021 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 2019 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might HIGH FIELD be worth now?

HIGH FIELD might now be worth an estimated £617,291.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.1%, between February 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Test Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGH FIELD of £522,500 on 26th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £522,500 to £617,291 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGH FIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Test Valley local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £522,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGH FIELD has not materially changed since February 2021.
