17 WORDSWORTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stockton-on-Tees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 WORDSWORTH CLOSE sales between December 1996 and November 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 June 2004 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might 17 WORDSWORTH CLOSE be worth now?

17 WORDSWORTH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £309,426.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.3%, between November 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stockton-on-Tees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 WORDSWORTH CLOSE of £245,000 on 10th November 2017. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £309,426 over the eight years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 WORDSWORTH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stockton-on-Tees local authority area.
