5 WESTGATE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Leeds local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 WESTGATE CLOSE sales from September 2008 and July 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 September 2008 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the July 2025 sale, where it falls to 52% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% below the HPI.

What might 5 WESTGATE CLOSE be worth now?

5 WESTGATE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £130,093.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.1%, between July 2025 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Leeds local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 WESTGATE CLOSE of £125,000 on 24th July 2025. For the value to have increased from £125,000 to £130,093 over the one year and three months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 WESTGATE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Leeds local authority area.
• The July 2025 sale price of £125,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 WESTGATE CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2025.
