ORCHARD VILLA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ORCHARD VILLA sales from August 2002 and April 2016 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 August 2002 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the April 2016 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might ORCHARD VILLA be worth now?

ORCHARD VILLA might now be worth an estimated £389,901.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.4%, between April 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 34.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD VILLA of £290,000 on 20th April 2016. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £389,901 over the nine years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD VILLA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The April 2016 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD VILLA has not materially changed since April 2016.
