24 HOWARDS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 24 HOWARDS CLOSE sales from March 2003 and December 2003 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 March 2003 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the December 2003 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 24 HOWARDS CLOSE be worth now?

24 HOWARDS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £323,708.

This is based on house price inflation of 90.4%, between December 2003 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 90.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 HOWARDS CLOSE of £170,000 on 16th December 2003. For the value to have increased from £170,000 to £323,708 over the 22 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 24 HOWARDS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The December 2003 sale price of £170,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 24 HOWARDS CLOSE has not materially changed since December 2003.
