The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 197 NORMANSTON DRIVE sales between July 1997 and May 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 December 2018 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the May 2021 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 197 NORMANSTON DRIVE be worth now?
