5 BESSANT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 BESSANT CLOSE sales between September 1997 and December 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 November 2016 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might 5 BESSANT CLOSE be worth now?

5 BESSANT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £600,385.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.3%, between December 2020 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 BESSANT CLOSE of £495,000 on 3rd December 2020. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £600,385 over the six years and seven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 BESSANT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
