The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 85 SHEARWATER DRIVE sales from May 1999 and August 2015 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 May 1999 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
85 SHEARWATER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £468,987.
This is based on house price inflation of 30.3%, between August 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
