3 HEATHER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 HEATHER CLOSE sales between February 1997 and August 2011 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 2004 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 3 HEATHER CLOSE be worth now?

3 HEATHER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £407,247.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.7%, between August 2011 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 69.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 HEATHER CLOSE of £240,000 on 10th August 2011. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £407,247 over the twelve years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 HEATHER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The August 2011 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 HEATHER CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2011.
