1A THE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1A THE DRIVE sales from January 2000 and December 2013 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 2000 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 1A THE DRIVE be worth now?

1A THE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £275,059.

This is based on house price inflation of 70.8%, between December 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tendring local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 70.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1A THE DRIVE of £161,000 on 19th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £161,000 to £275,059 over the twelve years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1A THE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tendring local authority area.
• The December 2013 sale price of £161,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1A THE DRIVE has not materially changed since December 2013.
