The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 81 MERGANSER DRIVE sales from February 1999 and August 2014 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 1999 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
81 MERGANSER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £292,038.
This is based on house price inflation of 36.8%, between August 2014 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 36.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 81 MERGANSER DRIVE of £213,500 on 1st August 2014. For the value to have increased from £213,500 to £292,038 over the eleven years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
