3 MIDDLE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Barnsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 MIDDLE CLOSE sales between January 1996 and November 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 October 2016 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 3 MIDDLE CLOSE be worth now?

3 MIDDLE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £185,408.

This is based on house price inflation of 27%, between November 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Barnsley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 27% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 MIDDLE CLOSE of £146,000 on 27th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £146,000 to £185,408 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 MIDDLE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Barnsley local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £146,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 MIDDLE CLOSE has not materially changed since November 2020.
