HIGH VIEW HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGH VIEW HOUSE sales from April 2006 and November 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 April 2006 sale was for 223% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 223% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 216% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 216% above the HPI.

What might HIGH VIEW HOUSE be worth now?

HIGH VIEW HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £745,187.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.1%, between November 2014 and August 2025, for detached houses, in the County Durham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGH VIEW HOUSE of £499,950 on 28th November 2014. For the value to have increased from £499,950 to £745,187 over the eleven years and three months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGH VIEW HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The November 2014 sale price of £499,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGH VIEW HOUSE has not materially changed since November 2014.
