15 SWALLOWTAIL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 SWALLOWTAIL CLOSE sales from September 1999 and March 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 September 1999 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the March 2002 sale, where it rises to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might 15 SWALLOWTAIL CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 216.9%, between March 2002 and February 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 216.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 SWALLOWTAIL CLOSE of £67,000 on 28th March 2002. For the value to have increased from £67,000 to £212,353 over the 23 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
