LYNGARTH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LYNGARTH sales between September 1995 and October 2005 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 May 1997 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, which was also at 10% below the HPI.

What might LYNGARTH be worth now?

LYNGARTH might now be worth an estimated £251,161.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.2%, between October 2005 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LYNGARTH of £165,000 on 24th October 2005. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £251,161 over the twenty years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LYNGARTH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The October 2005 sale price of £165,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LYNGARTH has not materially changed since October 2005.
