4 BRIGHT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 BRIGHT CLOSE sales between June 1997 and April 2012 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 April 2004 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 4 BRIGHT CLOSE be worth now?

4 BRIGHT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £225,042.

This is based on house price inflation of 57.4%, between April 2012 and June 2025, for terraced 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 57.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 BRIGHT CLOSE of £143,000 on 27th April 2012. For the value to have increased from £143,000 to £225,042 over the twelve years and ten months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 BRIGHT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The April 2012 sale price of £143,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 BRIGHT CLOSE has not materially changed since April 2012.
