5 AUTON CROFT 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 two 5 AUTON CROFT sales from July 1998 and August 2002 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 July 1998 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 5 AUTON CROFT be worth now?

5 AUTON CROFT might now be worth an estimated £580,479.

This is based on house price inflation of 132.2%, between August 2002 and July 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 132.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 AUTON CROFT of £250,000 on 30th August 2002. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £580,479 over the 23 years and one month to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 AUTON CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The August 2002 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
