6 MERLIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Charnwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 MERLIN CLOSE sales between December 2000 and July 2010 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 December 2003 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 6 MERLIN CLOSE be worth now?

6 MERLIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £290,316.

This is based on house price inflation of 73.3%, between July 2010 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Charnwood local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 73.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 MERLIN CLOSE of £167,500 on 9th July 2010. For the value to have increased from £167,500 to £290,316 over the fifteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 MERLIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Charnwood local authority area.
• The July 2010 sale price of £167,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6 MERLIN CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2010.
