5 OLD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 OLD CLOSE sales from February 2002 and October 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 February 2002 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 5 OLD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 40.9%, between October 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 40.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 OLD CLOSE of £340,000 on 9th October 2015. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £479,092 over the ten years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
