1 CARETAKERS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 CARETAKERS CLOSE sales from October 2018 and September 2021 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 October 2018 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 1 CARETAKERS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 14.2%, between September 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 CARETAKERS CLOSE of £470,000 on 27th September 2021. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £536,950 over the four years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
