21 ORCHID 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 four 21 ORCHID CLOSE sales between March 1998 and December 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 February 2002 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the December 2005 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 21 ORCHID CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 111.8%, between December 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 111.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 ORCHID CLOSE of £174,500 on 2nd December 2005. For the value to have increased from £174,500 to £369,516 over the twenty years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
