LITTLEWOOD 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 three LITTLEWOOD sales between April 2011 and February 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 December 2014 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might LITTLEWOOD be worth now?

LITTLEWOOD might now be worth an estimated £516,847.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.4%, between February 2024 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 3.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLEWOOD of £500,000 on 12th February 2024. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £516,847 over the one year to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLEWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The February 2024 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LITTLEWOOD has not materially changed since February 2024.
