1 NEWTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 NEWTON CLOSE sales from December 2018 and February 2019 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 December 2018 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 1 NEWTON CLOSE be worth now?

1 NEWTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £405,889.

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between February 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 NEWTON CLOSE of £350,000 on 1st February 2019. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £405,889 over the four years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 NEWTON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The February 2019 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 NEWTON CLOSE has not materially changed since February 2019.
