21 DOVE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 21 DOVE CLOSE sales between December 1996 and July 2022 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 July 1998 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 21 DOVE CLOSE be worth now?

21 DOVE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £366,787.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.9%, between July 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 DOVE CLOSE of £360,000 on 22nd July 2022. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £366,787 over the one year and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 DOVE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The July 2022 sale price of £360,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
