The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 165 MERGANSER DRIVE sales between April 1997 and October 2000 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 2000 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the October 2000 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.
165 MERGANSER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £287,855.
This is based on house price inflation of 216.3%, between October 2000 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 216.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 165 MERGANSER DRIVE of £91,000 on 27th October 2000. For the value to have increased from £91,000 to £287,855 over the 25 years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
