25 CHARLES DICKENS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 25 CHARLES DICKENS CLOSE sales between October 1996 and February 2018 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 May 2012 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might 25 CHARLES DICKENS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 27.6%, between February 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wychavon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 27.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 CHARLES DICKENS CLOSE of £420,000 on 15th February 2018. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £536,005 over the five years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
