The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 55 DOWNSIDE CLOSE sales from July 2011 and March 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 July 2011 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
55 DOWNSIDE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £331,879.
