8 WENTWORTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 WENTWORTH CLOSE sales from January 1997 and August 2004 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 January 1997 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 8 WENTWORTH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 75.7%, between August 2004 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).
