20 WHIMBREL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 20 WHIMBREL CLOSE sales between April 1996 and March 2013 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 February 2004 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the March 2013 sale, which was also at 12% below the HPI.

What might 20 WHIMBREL CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 79.1%, between March 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Croydon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 79.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 WHIMBREL CLOSE of £425,000 on 28th March 2013. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £761,293 over the twelve years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
