The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 30 BLACKSMITH CLOSE sales between December 2001 and June 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 August 2017 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it falls to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.
