The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Breckland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 CAPTAINS CLOSE sales from March 1996 and December 2017 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 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
2 CAPTAINS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £395,278.
This is based on house price inflation of 21.6%, between December 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Breckland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 21.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 CAPTAINS CLOSE of £325,000 on 21st December 2017. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £395,278 over the seven years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
