10 SWALLOW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 10 SWALLOW CLOSE sales between March 1995 and February 2022 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 May 1999 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the February 2022 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 10 SWALLOW CLOSE be worth now?

10 SWALLOW CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £465,287.

This is based on house price inflation of 11%, between February 2022 and December 2024, for 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 11% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 SWALLOW CLOSE of £419,300 on 15th February 2022. For the value to have increased from £419,300 to £465,287 over the one year and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 10 SWALLOW CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The February 2022 sale price of £419,300 represented a fair market value for the property.
