The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 FARTHING CLOSE sales between May 1997 and December 2004 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 August 2001 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the December 2004 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.
16 FARTHING CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £281,054.
This is based on house price inflation of 92.5%, between December 2004 and July 2025, for terraced 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 92.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 FARTHING CLOSE of £146,000 on 20th December 2004. For the value to have increased from £146,000 to £281,054 over the 21 years and five months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
