53 SHIPWRIGHTS DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 53 SHIPWRIGHTS DRIVE sales from December 1999 and March 2003 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 1999 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the March 2003 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 53 SHIPWRIGHTS DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 124.9%, between March 2003 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 124.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53 SHIPWRIGHTS DRIVE of £200,000 on 6th March 2003. For the value to have increased from £200,000 to £449,724 over the 22 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
