Land registry data shows two sales for PLAS GWYN since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Gwynedd local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two PLAS GWYN sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gwynedd local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PLAS GWYN sales from September 2003 and October 2012 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 September 2003 sale was for 85% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% above the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.
PLAS GWYN might now be worth an estimated £402,016.
This is based on house price inflation of 43.6%, between October 2012 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Gwynedd local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 43.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PLAS GWYN of £280,000 on 10th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £280,000 to £402,016 over the eleven years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
