MEADOWSTONE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MEADOWSTONE sales from August 2002 and November 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 August 2002 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 97% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 97% above the HPI.

What might MEADOWSTONE be worth now?

MEADOWSTONE might now be worth an estimated £464,718.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.3%, between November 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the County Durham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MEADOWSTONE of £425,000 on 17th November 2023. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £464,718 over the two years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MEADOWSTONE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £425,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MEADOWSTONE has not materially changed since November 2023.
