Land registry data shows two sales for BIRCHFIELD since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Herefordshire local authority area for the corresponding sale date. One of the two BIRCHFIELD sales was for above the average price, whilst the other was for below the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
| Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
|---|---|---|---|
2017 9 FEB | £321,500 | £314,872 | 2% above HPI |
2013 3 SEP | £250,000 | £282,716 | 12% below HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Herefordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRCHFIELD sales from September 2013 and February 2017 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 September 2013 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

BIRCHFIELD might now be worth an estimated £455,389.
This is based on house price inflation of 41.6%, between February 2017 and July 2026, for detached houses, in the Herefordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 41.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BIRCHFIELD of £321,500 on 9th February 2017. For the value to have increased from £321,500 to £455,389 over the eight years and seven months to July 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
