2 FIELD 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 2 FIELD CLOSE sales from November 2008 and August 2014 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 November 2008 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 2 FIELD CLOSE be worth now?

2 FIELD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £288,999.

This is based on house price inflation of 62.8%, between August 2014 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 62.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 FIELD CLOSE of £177,500 on 29th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £177,500 to £288,999 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 FIELD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £177,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
