23 LITCHEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Erewash local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 23 LITCHEN CLOSE sales between May 1996 and October 2002 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 November 1996 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the October 2002 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 23 LITCHEN CLOSE be worth now?

23 LITCHEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £194,771.

This is based on house price inflation of 199.6%, between October 2002 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Erewash local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 199.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 LITCHEN CLOSE of £65,000 on 15th October 2002. For the value to have increased from £65,000 to £194,771 over the 24 years and five months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 LITCHEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Erewash local authority area.
• The October 2002 sale price of £65,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
