The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 WOLVERTON CLOSE sales between February 1996 and October 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 January 1999 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.
8 WOLVERTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £496,311.
This is based on house price inflation of 21.1%, between October 2017 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).
