20 FORSYTHIA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 20 FORSYTHIA CLOSE sales between January 1995 and March 2021 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 2018 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 20 FORSYTHIA CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.1%, between March 2021 and July 2025, for detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 FORSYTHIA CLOSE of £395,000 on 25th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £458,555 over the three years and eight months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 FORSYTHIA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
