5 THE CHILDERS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 THE CHILDERS sales from January 2004 and January 2017 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 January 2004 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE CHILDERS be worth now?

5 THE CHILDERS might now be worth an estimated £681,154.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.5%, between January 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Epping Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE CHILDERS of £574,750 on 5th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £574,750 to £681,154 over the seven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE CHILDERS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Epping Forest local authority area.
• The January 2017 sale price of £574,750 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 THE CHILDERS has not materially changed since January 2017.
