MAYCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MAYCROFT sales between September 1997 and November 2006 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 2003 sale was for 159% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 159% above the HPI over time, until the November 2006 sale, where it falls to 143% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 143% above the HPI.

What might MAYCROFT be worth now?

MAYCROFT might now be worth an estimated £697,730.

This is based on house price inflation of 41%, between November 2006 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MAYCROFT of £495,000 on 15th November 2006. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £697,730 over the twenty years and seven months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MAYCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The November 2006 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MAYCROFT has not materially changed since November 2006.
