157C WEST HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 157C WEST HILL sales from July 1996 and October 2006 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 July 1996 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might 157C WEST HILL be worth now?

157C WEST HILL might now be worth an estimated £658,168.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.5%, between October 2006 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 157C WEST HILL of £410,000 on 25th October 2006. For the value to have increased from £410,000 to £658,168 over the seventeen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 157C WEST HILL has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The October 2006 sale price of £410,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 157C WEST HILL has not materially changed since October 2006.
