19 ARDEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 19 ARDEN CLOSE sales between March 1998 and August 2023 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 August 2007 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 19 ARDEN CLOSE be worth now?

19 ARDEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £290,848.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.9%, between August 2023 and December 2024, for semi-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 3.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 ARDEN CLOSE of £279,950 on 16th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £279,950 to £290,848 over the eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 19 ARDEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £279,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
