20 WOODPECKER 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 WOODPECKER CLOSE sales between September 2000 and July 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 June 2003 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 20 WOODPECKER CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 60%, between July 2013 and February 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 60% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 WOODPECKER CLOSE of £215,000 on 10th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £344,062 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
