23 HARKNESS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Milton Keynes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 HARKNESS CLOSE sales from July 1996 and February 2020 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 1996 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 23 HARKNESS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 30%, between February 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Milton Keynes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 30% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 HARKNESS CLOSE of £239,000 on 19th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £239,000 to £310,591 over the five years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
