42 BECKDALE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 42 BECKDALE CLOSE sales between March 1995 and January 2015 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 September 2004 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 42 BECKDALE CLOSE be worth now?

42 BECKDALE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £329,997.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.2%, between January 2015 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 42.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 BECKDALE CLOSE of £232,000 on 5th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £232,000 to £329,997 over the nine years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42 BECKDALE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £232,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
