WOODCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four WOODCROFT sales between March 2000 and November 2015 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 79% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 79% above the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.

What might WOODCROFT be worth now?

WOODCROFT might now be worth an estimated £697,637.

This is based on house price inflation of 39.5%, between November 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 39.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOODCROFT of £500,000 on 4th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £697,637 over the ten years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOODCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOODCROFT has not materially changed since November 2015.
