LOWER HILL BARN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hyndburn local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five LOWER HILL BARN sales between July 1995 and April 2019 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 2004 sale was for 105% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 105% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might LOWER HILL BARN be worth now?

LOWER HILL BARN might now be worth an estimated £351,986.

This is based on house price inflation of 43.4%, between April 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Hyndburn local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 43.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LOWER HILL BARN of £245,500 on 30th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £245,500 to £351,986 over the six years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LOWER HILL BARN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Hyndburn local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £245,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LOWER HILL BARN has not materially changed since April 2019.
