1 YORK CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 YORK CLOSE sales from August 1997 and March 1999 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 August 1997 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the March 1999 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 1 YORK CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 340.6%, between March 1999 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 340.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 YORK CLOSE of £57,000 on 31st March 1999. For the value to have increased from £57,000 to £251,121 over the 26 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
