THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BIRCHES sales from April 2020 and December 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 April 2020 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the December 2025 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might THE BIRCHES be worth now?

THE BIRCHES might now be worth an estimated £448,038.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.4%, between December 2025 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BIRCHES of £450,000 on 5th December 2025. For the value to have decreased from £450,000 to £448,038 over the one year and seven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BIRCHES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The December 2025 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BIRCHES has not materially changed since December 2025.
