THE BARN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six THE BARN sales between May 1997 and January 2025 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 April 2017 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might THE BARN be worth now?

THE BARN might now be worth an estimated £382,559.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.7%, between January 2025 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BARN of £380,000 on 22nd January 2025. For the value to have increased from £380,000 to £382,559 over the eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BARN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The January 2025 sale price of £380,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BARN has not materially changed since January 2025.
