9 MERLIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9 MERLIN CLOSE sales from September 2006 and July 2014 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 September 2006 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might 9 MERLIN CLOSE be worth now?

9 MERLIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £406,976.

This is based on house price inflation of 85%, between July 2014 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Bridgend local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 85% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 MERLIN CLOSE of £220,000 on 17th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £220,000 to £406,976 over the eleven years and four months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 9 MERLIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bridgend local authority area.
  • The July 2014 sale price of £220,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 9 MERLIN CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2014.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
