1A CASTLE STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1A CASTLE STREET sales from March 1996 and January 1997 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 March 1996 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the January 1997 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 1A CASTLE STREET be worth now?

1A CASTLE STREET might now be worth an estimated £467,825.

This is based on house price inflation of 419.8%, between January 1997 and February 2025, for semi-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 419.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1A CASTLE STREET of £90,000 on 31st January 1997. For the value to have increased from £90,000 to £467,825 over the 27 years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1A CASTLE STREET has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The January 1997 sale price of £90,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1A CASTLE STREET has not materially changed since January 1997.
