JACOBS CASTLE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Herefordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four JACOBS CASTLE sales between May 2000 and May 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 November 2020 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the May 2025 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might JACOBS CASTLE be worth now?

JACOBS CASTLE might now be worth an estimated £483,862.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.2%, between May 2025 and April 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 5.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for JACOBS CASTLE of £460,000 on 9th May 2025. For the value to have increased from £460,000 to £483,862 over the one year and one month to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of JACOBS CASTLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Herefordshire local authority area.
• The May 2025 sale price of £460,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of JACOBS CASTLE has not materially changed since May 2025.
