The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 159 LEXDEN ROAD sales between September 1996 and April 2021 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 April 2001 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
