1 BRACKEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worcester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BRACKEN CLOSE sales from December 1996 and August 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 December 1996 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 1 BRACKEN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 26.5%, between August 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Worcester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 BRACKEN CLOSE of £215,000 on 29th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £272,042 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
