55 SCHOOL LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 55 SCHOOL LANE sales between November 1998 and April 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 July 2005 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 55 SCHOOL LANE be worth now?

55 SCHOOL LANE might now be worth an estimated £705,656.

This is based on house price inflation of 12%, between April 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 55 SCHOOL LANE of £630,000 on 8th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £705,656 over the four years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 55 SCHOOL LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £630,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 55 SCHOOL LANE has not materially changed since April 2019.
