The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 9 WORDSWORTH CLOSE sales from March 1997 and July 2016 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 March 1997 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.
9 WORDSWORTH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £431,789.
This is based on house price inflation of 32.9%, between July 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 32.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 WORDSWORTH CLOSE of £325,000 on 26th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £431,789 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
