16 STRACHEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 STRACHEY CLOSE sales between May 2015 and January 2020 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 December 2019 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 16 STRACHEY CLOSE be worth now?

16 STRACHEY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £412,462.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.6%, between January 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 STRACHEY CLOSE of £360,000 on 9th January 2020. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £412,462 over the three years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 STRACHEY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The January 2020 sale price of £360,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
