20 WATER LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 WATER LANE sales from August 1996 and April 2007 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 August 1996 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the April 2007 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 20 WATER LANE be worth now?

20 WATER LANE might now be worth an estimated £723,249.

This is based on house price inflation of 83.1%, between April 2007 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 83.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 WATER LANE of £395,000 on 11th April 2007. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £723,249 over the eighteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 WATER LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The April 2007 sale price of £395,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 20 WATER LANE has not materially changed since April 2007.
