26 HELME DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 26 HELME DRIVE sales between December 2003 and June 2021 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 2016 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 26 HELME DRIVE be worth now?

26 HELME DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £322,134.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.1%, between June 2021 and February 2025, for semi-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 17.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 HELME DRIVE of £275,000 on 18th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £322,134 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 HELME DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
