9 LOWER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9 LOWER CLOSE sales from November 1996 and December 2022 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 November 1996 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 9 LOWER CLOSE be worth now?

9 LOWER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £438,828.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.9%, between December 2022 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).

The 0.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 LOWER CLOSE of £435,000 on 16th December 2022. For the value to have increased from £435,000 to £438,828 over the three years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 9 LOWER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The December 2022 sale price of £435,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 9 LOWER CLOSE has not materially changed since December 2022.
