The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 56 OAKWOOD AVENUE sales from September 2021 and June 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 September 2021 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the June 2024 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
56 OAKWOOD AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £446,158.
This is based on house price inflation of 2.6%, between June 2024 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
