17 BIRCHWOOD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Caerphilly local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 BIRCHWOOD CLOSE sales between March 1998 and January 2013 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 2000 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 17 BIRCHWOOD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 94.5%, between January 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Caerphilly local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 BIRCHWOOD CLOSE of £155,000 on 31st January 2013. For the value to have increased from £155,000 to £301,510 over the eleven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
