25 BLAKE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 25 BLAKE CLOSE sales between May 1999 and May 2020 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 2016 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 25 BLAKE CLOSE be worth now?

25 BLAKE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £296,641.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.2%, between May 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 BLAKE CLOSE of £235,000 on 29th May 2020. For the value to have increased from £235,000 to £296,641 over the five years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 25 BLAKE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The May 2020 sale price of £235,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
