26 THE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 THE DRIVE sales from November 2010 and October 2014 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 November 2010 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might 26 THE DRIVE be worth now?

26 THE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £430,680.

This is based on house price inflation of 56.6%, between October 2014 and December 2024, for semi-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 56.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 THE DRIVE of £275,000 on 28th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £430,680 over the nine years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 THE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
