ORCHARD HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ORCHARD HOUSE sales from June 1996 and July 2013 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 June 1996 sale was for 90% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 90% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD HOUSE be worth now?

ORCHARD HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £857,450.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.5%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Ashford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 71.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD HOUSE of £499,980 on 25th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £499,980 to £857,450 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Ashford local authority area.

• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD HOUSE has not materially changed since July 2013.
