6 ABBESS CLOSE 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 two 6 ABBESS CLOSE sales from November 1998 and May 2024 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 1998 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI.
