5 WIDEWATER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Adur local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 WIDEWATER CLOSE sales from February 2001 and December 2006 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 February 2001 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the December 2006 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 5 WIDEWATER CLOSE be worth now?

5 WIDEWATER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £413,619.

This is based on house price inflation of 90.2%, between December 2006 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Adur local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 90.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 WIDEWATER CLOSE of £217,500 on 20th December 2006. For the value to have increased from £217,500 to £413,619 over the twenty years and eight months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 WIDEWATER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Adur local authority area.
• The December 2006 sale price of £217,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
