26 ELM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 ELM CLOSE sales from September 2000 and August 2022 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 September 2000 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 26 ELM CLOSE be worth now?

26 ELM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £278,811.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.4%, between August 2022 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 ELM CLOSE of £275,000 on 30th August 2022. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £278,811 over the four years and four months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 ELM CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 26 ELM CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2022.
