LYNTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LYNTON sales from November 2000 and February 2023 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 November 2000 sale was for 100% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 100% above the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it falls to 72% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 72% above the HPI.

What might LYNTON be worth now?

LYNTON might now be worth an estimated £504,536.

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between February 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LYNTON of £435,000 on 17th February 2023. For the value to have increased from £435,000 to £504,536 over the two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LYNTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area.
• The February 2023 sale price of £435,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LYNTON has not materially changed since February 2023.
