2 THE LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 THE LEA sales between February 1998 and December 2023 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 May 2022 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might 2 THE LEA be worth now?

2 THE LEA might now be worth an estimated £530,388.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.5%, between December 2023 and October 2025, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE LEA of £480,000 on 8th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £530,388 over the two years and two months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 THE LEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 THE LEA has not materially changed since December 2023.
