The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 278 ASQUITH BOULEVARD sales from February 2000 and February 2001 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 February 2000 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the February 2001 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.
278 ASQUITH BOULEVARD might now be worth an estimated £327,160.
This is based on house price inflation of 374.1%, between February 2001 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Leicester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 374.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 278 ASQUITH BOULEVARD of £69,000 on 15th February 2001. For the value to have increased from £69,000 to £327,160 over the 22 years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
