8 BARNES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaenau Gwent local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 BARNES CLOSE sales from July 2002 and April 2017 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 2002 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 8 BARNES CLOSE be worth now?

8 BARNES CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £209,675.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.7%, between April 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Blaenau Gwent local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 BARNES CLOSE of £125,000 on 28th April 2017. For the value to have increased from £125,000 to £209,675 over the eight years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 BARNES CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaenau Gwent local authority area.
• The April 2017 sale price of £125,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
