MERRIMEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bradford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MERRIMEAD sales from June 2001 and September 2017 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 June 2001 sale was for 186% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 186% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 227% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 227% above the HPI.

What might MERRIMEAD be worth now?

MERRIMEAD might now be worth an estimated £1,039,837.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.9%, between September 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bradford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MERRIMEAD of £765,000 on 22nd September 2017. For the value to have increased from £765,000 to £1,039,837 over the eight years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MERRIMEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bradford local authority area.
• The September 2017 sale price of £765,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MERRIMEAD has not materially changed since September 2017.
