62 LAPWING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 62 LAPWING CLOSE sales from October 1996 and July 1998 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 October 1996 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the July 1998 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 62 LAPWING CLOSE be worth now?

62 LAPWING CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £183,766.

This is based on house price inflation of 295.2%, between July 1998 and June 2025, for semi-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 295.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 62 LAPWING CLOSE of £46,500 on 10th July 1998. For the value to have increased from £46,500 to £183,766 over the 27 years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 62 LAPWING CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The July 1998 sale price of £46,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
