THE BASTLE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BASTLE sales from October 1997 and January 2006 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 October 1997 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the January 2006 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might THE BASTLE be worth now?

THE BASTLE might now be worth an estimated £468,958.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.8%, between January 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 50.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BASTLE of £311,000 on 4th January 2006. For the value to have increased from £311,000 to £468,958 over the eighteen years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BASTLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The January 2006 sale price of £311,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BASTLE has not materially changed since January 2006.
