ORCHARD HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ORCHARD HOUSE sales from July 2011 and November 2024 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 July 2011 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD HOUSE be worth now?

ORCHARD HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £705,921.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.8%, between November 2024 and October 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD HOUSE of £700,000 on 8th November 2024. For the value to have increased from £700,000 to £705,921 over the one year and one month to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The November 2024 sale price of £700,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD HOUSE has not materially changed since November 2024.
