SHIMMERINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Hams local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SHIMMERINGS sales between November 1996 and December 2020 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 July 2003 sale was for 97% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 97% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 178% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 178% above the HPI.

What might SHIMMERINGS be worth now?

SHIMMERINGS might now be worth an estimated £1,599,520.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.3%, between December 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the South Hams local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SHIMMERINGS of £1,450,000 on 9th December 2020. For the value to have increased from £1,450,000 to £1,599,520 over the four years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SHIMMERINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Hams local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £1,450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SHIMMERINGS has not materially changed since December 2020.
