8 LAPWING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 LAPWING CLOSE sales between February 1996 and August 2009 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 August 2006 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 8 LAPWING CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 72.8%, between August 2009 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 72.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LAPWING CLOSE of £174,500 on 24th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £174,500 to £301,539 over the sixteen years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 LAPWING CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
