5 CHESTER PLACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 CHESTER PLACE sales from August 1999 and January 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 August 1999 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the January 2004 sale, where it falls to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.

What might 5 CHESTER PLACE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 125.6%, between January 2004 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 125.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 CHESTER PLACE of £106,500 on 5th January 2004. For the value to have increased from £106,500 to £240,291 over the twenty years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
