4 THE MEAD 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 THE MEAD sales between August 1995 and May 2004 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 November 1998 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 4 THE MEAD be worth now?

4 THE MEAD might now be worth an estimated £526,954.

This is based on house price inflation of 102.7%, between May 2004 and December 2024, 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 102.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE MEAD of £259,950 on 4th May 2004. For the value to have increased from £259,950 to £526,954 over the nineteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE MEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The May 2004 sale price of £259,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE MEAD has not materially changed since May 2004.
