22 MERLIN WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 22 MERLIN WAY sales between August 1999 and April 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 2007 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 22 MERLIN WAY be worth now?

22 MERLIN WAY might now be worth an estimated £351,479.

This is based on house price inflation of 54.5%, between April 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 54.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 MERLIN WAY of £227,500 on 15th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £227,500 to £351,479 over the eleven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 22 MERLIN WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £227,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 22 MERLIN WAY has not materially changed since April 2014.
