7 SHIRLEY DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Merthyr Tydfil local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 SHIRLEY DRIVE sales between August 1999 and June 2007 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 2007 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the June 2007 sale, which was also at 31% above the HPI.

What might 7 SHIRLEY DRIVE be worth now?

7 SHIRLEY DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £197,853.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.2%, between June 2007 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Merthyr Tydfil local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 SHIRLEY DRIVE of £130,000 on 29th June 2007. For the value to have increased from £130,000 to £197,853 over the eighteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 SHIRLEY DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Merthyr Tydfil local authority area.
• The June 2007 sale price of £130,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
