The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 147 MELFORD ROAD sales from November 1998 and June 2002 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 November 1998 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the June 2002 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.
147 MELFORD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £426,051.
This is based on house price inflation of 184%, between June 2002 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Babergh local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 184% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 147 MELFORD ROAD of £149,995 on 13th June 2002. For the value to have increased from £149,995 to £426,051 over the 23 years and three months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
