The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 LAPWING CRESCENT sales between August 1997 and March 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 October 2002 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
8 LAPWING CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £452,495.
This is based on house price inflation of 57.4%, between March 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 57.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LAPWING CRESCENT of £287,500 on 14th March 2014. For the value to have increased from £287,500 to £452,495 over the nine years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
