49 THE BUTTS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 49 THE BUTTS sales between November 2010 and October 2022 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 September 2017 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 49 THE BUTTS be worth now?

49 THE BUTTS might now be worth an estimated £305,226.

This is based on house price inflation of 6.9%, between October 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 6.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 49 THE BUTTS of £285,500 on 5th October 2022. For the value to have increased from £285,500 to £305,226 over the one year and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 49 THE BUTTS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The October 2022 sale price of £285,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
