8 FLAX CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 FLAX CLOSE sales from November 2003 and September 2014 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 November 2003 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 8 FLAX CLOSE be worth now?

8 FLAX CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £392,612.

This is based on house price inflation of 57.1%, between September 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 57.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 FLAX CLOSE of £249,950 on 25th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £249,950 to £392,612 over the eleven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 FLAX CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area.
• The September 2014 sale price of £249,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
