THE OLD POST OFFICE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD POST OFFICE sales between December 1995 and July 2010 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 2005 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it rises to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD POST OFFICE be worth now?

THE OLD POST OFFICE might now be worth an estimated £1,081,980.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.5%, between July 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD POST OFFICE of £650,000 on 30th July 2010. For the value to have increased from £650,000 to £1,081,980 over the fifteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD POST OFFICE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The July 2010 sale price of £650,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD POST OFFICE has not materially changed since July 2010.
