6 BRAMBLEDOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 6 BRAMBLEDOWN sales between January 1995 and January 2014 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 January 2008 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, which was also at 21% below the HPI.

What might 6 BRAMBLEDOWN be worth now?

6 BRAMBLEDOWN might now be worth an estimated £397,485.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.2%, between January 2014 and February 2025, 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).

The 64.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 BRAMBLEDOWN of £242,000 on 27th January 2014. For the value to have increased from £242,000 to £397,485 over the ten years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 BRAMBLEDOWN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The January 2014 sale price of £242,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
