MURIAU Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gwynedd local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MURIAU sales from October 1998 and October 2004 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 October 1998 sale was for 118% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 118% above the HPI over time, until the October 2004 sale, where it rises to 145% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 145% above the HPI.

What might MURIAU be worth now?

MURIAU might now be worth an estimated £740,160.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.3%, between October 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Gwynedd local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MURIAU of £445,000 on 25th October 2004. For the value to have increased from £445,000 to £740,160 over the 21 years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MURIAU has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Gwynedd local authority area.
• The October 2004 sale price of £445,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MURIAU has not materially changed since October 2004.
