28 CASTLE STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 28 CASTLE STREET sales between April 2000 and April 2014 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 2007 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 28 CASTLE STREET be worth now?

28 CASTLE STREET might now be worth an estimated £428,782.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.9%, between April 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Epping Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 64.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 28 CASTLE STREET of £260,000 on 9th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £260,000 to £428,782 over the eleven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 28 CASTLE STREET has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Epping Forest local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £260,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
