FARTHINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FARTHINGS sales between July 2002 and March 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 July 2017 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the March 2025 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might FARTHINGS be worth now?

FARTHINGS might now be worth an estimated £426,669.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.8%, between March 2025 and May 2026, for detached 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 0.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for FARTHINGS of £430,000 on 19th March 2025. For the value to have decreased from £430,000 to £426,669 over the ten months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FARTHINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The March 2025 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FARTHINGS has not materially changed since March 2025.
