16 SOUTHDOWN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Charnwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 SOUTHDOWN DRIVE sales from July 2004 and December 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 July 2004 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the December 2006 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 16 SOUTHDOWN DRIVE be worth now?

16 SOUTHDOWN DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £292,292.

This is based on house price inflation of 73%, between December 2006 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Charnwood local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 73% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 SOUTHDOWN DRIVE of £169,000 on 21st December 2006. For the value to have increased from £169,000 to £292,292 over the twenty years and seven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 SOUTHDOWN DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Charnwood local authority area.
