MELFORT HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MELFORT HOUSE sales from January 2006 and April 2019 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 January 2006 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might MELFORT HOUSE be worth now?

MELFORT HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £513,341.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.7%, between April 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MELFORT HOUSE of £408,500 on 12th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £408,500 to £513,341 over the six years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MELFORT HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £408,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
