4 LEY FIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 LEY FIELD sales between January 1996 and July 2006 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 2002 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it rises to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 4 LEY FIELD be worth now?

4 LEY FIELD might now be worth an estimated £434,531.

This is based on house price inflation of 91.5%, between July 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 91.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 LEY FIELD of £226,900 on 7th July 2006. For the value to have increased from £226,900 to £434,531 over the nineteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 LEY FIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The July 2006 sale price of £226,900 represented a fair market value for the property.
