18 ACTON WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cambridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 ACTON WAY sales between April 1997 and May 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 2019 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 18 ACTON WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 7.6%, between May 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cambridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 ACTON WAY of £540,000 on 24th May 2024. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £581,031 over the one year and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The May 2024 sale price of £540,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
