The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 JAMES ESSEX DRIVE sales between March 2008 and March 2024 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 March 2016 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.
