1 HART CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 HART CLOSE sales from September 1996 and November 2001 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 September 1996 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the November 2001 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 1 HART CLOSE be worth now?

1 HART CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £291,107.

This is based on house price inflation of 240.5%, between November 2001 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 240.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 HART CLOSE of £85,500 on 28th November 2001. For the value to have increased from £85,500 to £291,107 over the 22 years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 HART CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The November 2001 sale price of £85,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 HART CLOSE has not materially changed since November 2001.
