What might 8 CENTRAL CLOSE be worth now?

8 CENTRAL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £256,176.

This is based on house price inflation of 46.4%, between July 2016 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 CENTRAL CLOSE of £175,000 on 22nd July 2016. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £256,176 over the ten years and three months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 8 CENTRAL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
  • The July 2016 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 8 CENTRAL CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2016.
