14 KENSINGTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 14 KENSINGTON CLOSE sales from May 2014 and April 2017 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 2014 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, which was also at 35% below the HPI.

What might 14 KENSINGTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 38.1%, between April 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 KENSINGTON CLOSE of £208,000 on 21st April 2017. For the value to have increased from £208,000 to £287,212 over the eight years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
