TREETOPS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three TREETOPS sales between February 1995 and September 2019 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 2007 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might TREETOPS be worth now?

TREETOPS might now be worth an estimated £443,510.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.7%, between September 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TREETOPS of £364,500 on 25th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £364,500 to £443,510 over the six years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TREETOPS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The September 2019 sale price of £364,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TREETOPS has not materially changed since September 2019.
