5 EATON MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 EATON MEWS sales from December 2016 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 December 2016 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 5 EATON MEWS be worth now?
