THE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the High Peak local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE CROFT sales between November 1995 and March 2015 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 2006 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might THE CROFT be worth now?

THE CROFT might now be worth an estimated £604,148.

This is based on house price inflation of 72.6%, between March 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the High Peak local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 72.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE CROFT of £349,950 on 3rd March 2015. For the value to have increased from £349,950 to £604,148 over the ten years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the High Peak local authority area.
• The March 2015 sale price of £349,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE CROFT has not materially changed since March 2015.
