1 VALENTINE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 VALENTINE CLOSE sales between February 1997 and July 2003 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 2002 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 1 VALENTINE CLOSE be worth now?

1 VALENTINE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £503,647.

This is based on house price inflation of 102.3%, between July 2003 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wychavon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 102.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 VALENTINE CLOSE of £249,000 on 28th July 2003. For the value to have increased from £249,000 to £503,647 over the twenty years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
