THE GATE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE GATE HOUSE sales from December 2002 and November 2011 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 December 2002 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the November 2011 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might THE GATE HOUSE be worth now?

THE GATE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £543,279.

This is based on house price inflation of 59.8%, between November 2011 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 59.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE GATE HOUSE of £340,000 on 25th November 2011. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £543,279 over the twelve years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE GATE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The November 2011 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE GATE HOUSE has not materially changed since November 2011.
