4 BUTTERFLY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 BUTTERFLY CLOSE sales from December 2016 and November 2019 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 December 2016 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 4 BUTTERFLY CLOSE be worth now?

4 BUTTERFLY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £250,031.

This is based on house price inflation of 25%, between November 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 BUTTERFLY CLOSE of £200,000 on 1st November 2019. For the value to have increased from £200,000 to £250,031 over the six years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
