1 RUSSELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rotherham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 RUSSELL CLOSE sales between October 2001 and November 2020 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 2005 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 1 RUSSELL CLOSE be worth now?

1 RUSSELL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £249,214.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.2%, between November 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Rotherham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 RUSSELL CLOSE of £197,500 on 25th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £197,500 to £249,214 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 RUSSELL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rotherham local authority area.
