LUMSDALE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LUMSDALE sales between November 1998 and April 2018 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 2000 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might LUMSDALE be worth now?

LUMSDALE might now be worth an estimated £556,590.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.2%, between April 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LUMSDALE of £475,000 on 24th April 2018. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £556,590 over the seven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LUMSDALE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The April 2018 sale price of £475,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LUMSDALE has not materially changed since April 2018.
