MERRYFIELD HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MERRYFIELD HOUSE sales between May 2003 and January 2022 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 July 2012 sale was for 174% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 174% above the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, where it rises to 273% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 273% above the HPI.

What might MERRYFIELD HOUSE be worth now?

MERRYFIELD HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,973,389.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.9%, between January 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MERRYFIELD HOUSE of £1,900,000 on 31st January 2022. For the value to have increased from £1,900,000 to £1,973,389 over the two years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MERRYFIELD HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The January 2022 sale price of £1,900,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
