79 COLBY DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Charnwood local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 79 COLBY DRIVE sales from October 1999 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 October 1999 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 79 COLBY DRIVE be worth now?

79 COLBY DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £507,266.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.4%, between January 2025 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Charnwood local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 COLBY DRIVE of £500,500 on 8th January 2025. For the value to have increased from £500,500 to £507,266 over the seven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 79 COLBY DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Charnwood local authority area.
• The January 2025 sale price of £500,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
