The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD POST OFFICE sales between July 2003 and November 2014 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 August 2005 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
THE OLD POST OFFICE might now be worth an estimated £711,204.
This is based on house price inflation of 42.3%, between November 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 42.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD POST OFFICE of £499,950 on 4th November 2014. For the value to have increased from £499,950 to £711,204 over the eleven years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
