THE BOURNE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BOURNE sales from September 1996 and July 1999 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 1996 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the July 1999 sale, where it rises to 70% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 70% above the HPI.

What might THE BOURNE be worth now?

THE BOURNE might now be worth an estimated £738,872.

This is based on house price inflation of 299.4%, between July 1999 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 299.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BOURNE of £185,000 on 29th July 1999. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £738,872 over the 26 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BOURNE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The July 1999 sale price of £185,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BOURNE has not materially changed since July 1999.
