The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 26 HIGHFIELDS DRIVE sales between September 2013 and February 2023 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 2018 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
