OLD POLICE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD POLICE HOUSE sales from January 1997 and March 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 January 1997 sale was for 60% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% below the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might OLD POLICE HOUSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.8%, between March 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
