KENELM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four KENELM sales between January 1995 and August 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 February 2015 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might KENELM be worth now?

KENELM might now be worth an estimated £429,322.

This is based on house price inflation of 1%, between August 2024 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KENELM of £425,000 on 23rd August 2024. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £429,322 over the eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KENELM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The August 2024 sale price of £425,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KENELM has not materially changed since August 2024.
