4 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 THE CLOSE sales from December 1996 and January 2025 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 December 1996 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 4 THE CLOSE be worth now?

4 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £295,367.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.4%, between January 2025 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE CLOSE of £275,000 on 24th January 2025. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £295,367 over the eight months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The January 2025 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since January 2025.
