LIME TREE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LIME TREE HOUSE sales from March 1998 and April 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 March 1998 sale was for 139% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 139% above the HPI over time, until the April 2011 sale, where it falls to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.

What might LIME TREE HOUSE be worth now?

LIME TREE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £783,540.

This is based on house price inflation of 63.2%, between April 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 63.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LIME TREE HOUSE of £480,000 on 21st April 2011. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £783,540 over the fourteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LIME TREE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The April 2011 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LIME TREE HOUSE has not materially changed since April 2011.
