ORCHARD END Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ORCHARD END sales between April 1995 and December 2023 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 November 2000 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might ORCHARD END be worth now?

ORCHARD END might now be worth an estimated £445,269.

This is based on house price inflation of 6%, between December 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD END of £420,000 on 8th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £445,269 over the two years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD END has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £420,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD END has not materially changed since December 2023.
