HIGHFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGHFIELDS sales between July 1996 and December 2000 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 February 1998 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the December 2000 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.

What might HIGHFIELDS be worth now?

HIGHFIELDS might now be worth an estimated £456,881.

This is based on house price inflation of 182%, between December 2000 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 182% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHFIELDS of £162,000 on 19th December 2000. For the value to have increased from £162,000 to £456,881 over the 25 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHFIELDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The December 2000 sale price of £162,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHFIELDS has not materially changed since December 2000.
