1 THE DRIFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 THE DRIFT sales from June 2001 and May 2013 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 June 2001 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 1 THE DRIFT be worth now?

1 THE DRIFT might now be worth an estimated £448,317.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.2%, between May 2013 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 69.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE DRIFT of £265,000 on 22nd May 2013. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £448,317 over the twelve years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 THE DRIFT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The May 2013 sale price of £265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 THE DRIFT has not materially changed since May 2013.
