The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 ALCESTER DRIVE sales from April 2013 and May 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 April 2013 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
18 ALCESTER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £470,068.
This is based on house price inflation of 29.9%, between May 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Leicester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
