6 MELCHESTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 6 MELCHESTER CLOSE sales between April 2001 and June 2025 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 October 2020 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the June 2025 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 6 MELCHESTER CLOSE be worth now?

6 MELCHESTER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £256,682.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.7%, between June 2025 and May 2026, for terraced houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 MELCHESTER CLOSE of £250,000 on 30th June 2025. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £256,682 over the one year and one month to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 MELCHESTER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Dorset local authority area.
