The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 238 GLOUCESTER ROAD sales from July 1996 and January 2002 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 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the January 2002 sale, where it rises to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.
238 GLOUCESTER ROAD might now be worth an estimated £359,639.
This is based on house price inflation of 199.8%, between January 2002 and February 2025, for semi-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 199.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 238 GLOUCESTER ROAD of £119,950 on 18th January 2002. For the value to have increased from £119,950 to £359,639 over the 22 years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
