2 LAW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 LAW CLOSE sales from March 1996 and September 2005 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 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 2 LAW CLOSE be worth now?

2 LAW CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £303,886.

This is based on house price inflation of 109.6%, between September 2005 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 109.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 LAW CLOSE of £145,000 on 1st September 2005. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £303,886 over the twenty years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 LAW CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The September 2005 sale price of £145,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
