5 OSPREY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Kesteven local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 5 OSPREY CLOSE sales between September 2001 and March 2022 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 2021 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 5 OSPREY CLOSE be worth now?

5 OSPREY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £258,602.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.6%, between March 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Kesteven local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 OSPREY CLOSE of £252,000 on 11th March 2022. For the value to have increased from £252,000 to £258,602 over the three years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 OSPREY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Kesteven local authority area.
• The March 2022 sale price of £252,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
