68 LUMSDEN AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Southampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 68 LUMSDEN AVENUE sales between August 1995 and August 1997 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 January 1996 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the August 1997 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.

What might 68 LUMSDEN AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 392.1%, between August 1997 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Southampton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 392.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 68 LUMSDEN AVENUE of £97,000 on 22nd August 1997. For the value to have increased from £97,000 to £477,366 over the 28 years and one month to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
