GROOMSGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three GROOMSGATE sales between June 2002 and June 2012 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 June 2006 sale was for 70% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% above the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.

What might GROOMSGATE be worth now?

GROOMSGATE might now be worth an estimated £475,280.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.7%, between June 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cheltenham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GROOMSGATE of £263,000 on 29th June 2012. For the value to have increased from £263,000 to £475,280 over the thirteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GROOMSGATE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheltenham local authority area.
• The June 2012 sale price of £263,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GROOMSGATE has not materially changed since June 2012.
