7 IDLE VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bassetlaw local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 IDLE VIEW sales between March 1995 and April 2003 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 1997 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the April 2003 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 7 IDLE VIEW be worth now?

7 IDLE VIEW might now be worth an estimated £296,672.

This is based on house price inflation of 151.4%, between April 2003 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bassetlaw local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 151.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 IDLE VIEW of £118,000 on 29th April 2003. For the value to have increased from £118,000 to £296,672 over the 22 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 IDLE VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bassetlaw local authority area.
• The April 2003 sale price of £118,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 7 IDLE VIEW has not materially changed since April 2003.
