THE CLOSE 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 THE CLOSE sales between March 2004 and June 2006 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 January 2005 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the June 2006 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might THE CLOSE be worth now?

THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £528,628.

This is based on house price inflation of 93.6%, between June 2006 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 93.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE CLOSE of £273,000 on 6th June 2006. For the value to have increased from £273,000 to £528,628 over the nineteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheltenham local authority area.
• The June 2006 sale price of £273,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE CLOSE has not materially changed since June 2006.
