8 BIRCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 BIRCH CLOSE sales between March 1999 and June 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 February 2021 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the June 2025 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 8 BIRCH CLOSE be worth now?

8 BIRCH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £185,564.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.2%, between June 2025 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 BIRCH CLOSE of £178,000 on 20th June 2025. For the value to have increased from £178,000 to £185,564 over the one year and two months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 BIRCH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The June 2025 sale price of £178,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
