The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 79 SPRUCE DRIVE sales between October 1998 and July 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 February 2004 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.
79 SPRUCE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £216,596.
This is based on house price inflation of 17.1%, between July 2020 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 17.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 SPRUCE DRIVE of £185,000 on 20th July 2020. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £216,596 over the five years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
