5 ARUM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Malvern Hills local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 ARUM CLOSE sales from May 1997 and September 2002 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 May 1997 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the September 2002 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 5 ARUM CLOSE be worth now?

5 ARUM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £479,986.

This is based on house price inflation of 123.2%, between September 2002 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Malvern Hills local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 123.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ARUM CLOSE of £215,000 on 30th September 2002. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £479,986 over the 23 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ARUM CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Malvern Hills local authority area.
• The September 2002 sale price of £215,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 ARUM CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2002.
