8 MELBOURNE PLACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 MELBOURNE PLACE sales between July 2001 and October 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 July 2007 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 8 MELBOURNE PLACE be worth now?

8 MELBOURNE PLACE might now be worth an estimated £194,998.

This is based on house price inflation of 39.8%, between October 2014 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 39.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 MELBOURNE PLACE of £139,500 on 31st October 2014. For the value to have increased from £139,500 to £194,998 over the eleven years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 8 MELBOURNE PLACE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
  • The October 2014 sale price of £139,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 8 MELBOURNE PLACE has not materially changed since October 2014.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
