Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2021 28 JAN | £248,727 | £230,777 | ![]() 8% above HPI |

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Oadby and Wigston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 262 LEICESTER ROAD sales from May 2003 and January 2021 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 May 2003 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
262 LEICESTER ROAD might now be worth an estimated £281,433.
This is based on house price inflation of 13.1%, between January 2021 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Oadby and Wigston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 13.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 262 LEICESTER ROAD of £248,727 on 28th January 2021. For the value to have increased from £248,727 to £281,433 over the three years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
