HOWE TOP 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 three HOWE TOP sales between August 2007 and April 2024 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 November 2019 sale was for 471% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 471% above the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 242% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 242% above the HPI.

What might HOWE TOP be worth now?

HOWE TOP might now be worth an estimated £1,360,602.

This is based on house price inflation of 6.7%, between April 2024 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 6.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOWE TOP of £1,275,000 on 12th April 2024. For the value to have increased from £1,275,000 to £1,360,602 over the one year and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOWE TOP has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The April 2024 sale price of £1,275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOWE TOP has not materially changed since April 2024.
