The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 THOMPSON DRIVE sales between August 1997 and December 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 February 2014 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.
1 THOMPSON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £447,936.
This is based on house price inflation of 21.9%, between December 2020 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 21.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THOMPSON DRIVE of £367,500 on 21st December 2020. For the value to have increased from £367,500 to £447,936 over the four years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
