5 ROOKS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 ROOKS CLOSE sales between October 1995 and August 2024 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 August 2019 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 5 ROOKS CLOSE be worth now?

5 ROOKS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £258,194.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.2%, between August 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ROOKS CLOSE of £245,500 on 19th August 2024. For the value to have increased from £245,500 to £258,194 over the one year and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ROOKS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The August 2024 sale price of £245,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
