3 BENSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Gloucester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 BENSON CLOSE sales from February 1995 and January 2010 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 1995 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 3 BENSON CLOSE be worth now?

3 BENSON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £265,497.

This is based on house price inflation of 112.5%, between January 2010 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Gloucester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 112.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 BENSON CLOSE of £124,950 on 21st January 2010. For the value to have increased from £124,950 to £265,497 over the thirteen years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
