40 DERWENT DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Croydon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 40 DERWENT DRIVE sales from December 1998 and October 2005 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 1998 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might 40 DERWENT DRIVE be worth now?

40 DERWENT DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £668,295.

This is based on house price inflation of 115.6%, between October 2005 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Croydon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 115.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 40 DERWENT DRIVE of £310,000 on 11th October 2005. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £668,295 over the twenty years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 40 DERWENT DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Croydon local authority area.
• The October 2005 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
