3 ORCHARD CLOSE 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 three 3 ORCHARD CLOSE sales between October 1995 and September 2009 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 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 3 ORCHARD CLOSE be worth now?

3 ORCHARD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £771,733.

This is based on house price inflation of 93%, between September 2009 and December 2024, 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 93% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 ORCHARD CLOSE of £399,950 on 30th September 2009. For the value to have increased from £399,950 to £771,733 over the fourteen years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 ORCHARD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
