THE SLEEPERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE SLEEPERS sales between January 2000 and October 2016 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 September 2003 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, which was also at 36% above the HPI.

What might THE SLEEPERS be worth now?

THE SLEEPERS might now be worth an estimated £855,692.

This is based on house price inflation of 38%, between October 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cheltenham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE SLEEPERS of £620,000 on 5th October 2016. For the value to have increased from £620,000 to £855,692 over the nine years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE SLEEPERS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheltenham local authority area.
• The October 2016 sale price of £620,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE SLEEPERS has not materially changed since October 2016.
