THE BARN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the South Kesteven local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE BARN sales between September 1995 and April 2014 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 March 2003 sale was for 102% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 102% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 108% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 108% above the HPI.

What might THE BARN be worth now?

THE BARN might now be worth an estimated £498,680.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.3%, between April 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the South Kesteven local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BARN of £298,000 on 11th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £298,000 to £498,680 over the nine years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BARN has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the South Kesteven local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £298,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BARN has not materially changed since April 2014.
