37 MERLIN CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 37 MERLIN CRESCENT sales from March 1998 and May 2012 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 1998 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 37 MERLIN CRESCENT be worth now?

37 MERLIN CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £238,557.

This is based on house price inflation of 90.9%, between May 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Bridgend local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 90.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 37 MERLIN CRESCENT of £124,950 on 3rd May 2012. For the value to have increased from £124,950 to £238,557 over the thirteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 37 MERLIN CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bridgend local authority area.
• The May 2012 sale price of £124,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 37 MERLIN CRESCENT has not materially changed since May 2012.
