8 WATCHORN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Derbyshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 WATCHORN CLOSE sales between October 2001 and December 2018 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 2013 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 8 WATCHORN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.1%, between December 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the South Derbyshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 WATCHORN CLOSE of £299,950 on 12th December 2018. For the value to have increased from £299,950 to £384,209 over the six years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
