4 KENNET CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 KENNET CLOSE sales between August 2000 and March 2016 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 June 2014 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 4 KENNET CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 37.5%, between March 2016 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 37.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 KENNET CLOSE of £179,950 on 18th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £179,950 to £247,502 over the seven years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 KENNET CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The March 2016 sale price of £179,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
