OLD POST OFFICE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three OLD POST OFFICE sales between December 1996 and August 2014 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 March 1999 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might OLD POST OFFICE be worth now?

OLD POST OFFICE might now be worth an estimated £256,016.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.3%, between August 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OLD POST OFFICE of £153,000 on 15th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £153,000 to £256,016 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OLD POST OFFICE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £153,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OLD POST OFFICE has not materially changed since August 2014.
