THE HEDGEROW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE HEDGEROW sales between August 1999 and November 2020 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 June 2010 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might THE HEDGEROW be worth now?

THE HEDGEROW might now be worth an estimated £671,532.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.2%, between November 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wychavon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE HEDGEROW of £583,000 on 20th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £583,000 to £671,532 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE HEDGEROW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wychavon local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £583,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE HEDGEROW has not materially changed since November 2020.
