17 DOVECOTE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 DOVECOTE CLOSE sales from January 2000 and March 2019 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 January 2000 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 17 DOVECOTE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 25.1%, between March 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 DOVECOTE CLOSE of £220,000 on 22nd March 2019. For the value to have increased from £220,000 to £275,146 over the six years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 DOVECOTE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The March 2019 sale price of £220,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
