51 HILLCREST DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 51 HILLCREST DRIVE sales between September 2002 and December 2019 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 February 2008 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the December 2019 sale, which was also at 35% below the HPI.

What might 51 HILLCREST DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 19.1%, between December 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 51 HILLCREST DRIVE of £230,000 on 16th December 2019. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £273,936 over the six years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
