The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 HIGHFIELDS ROAD sales from January 2020 and November 2024 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 January 2020 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
17 HIGHFIELDS ROAD might now be worth an estimated £362,869.
This is based on house price deflation of 0.2%, between November 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
