6 DOLPHIN LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 6 DOLPHIN LANE sales between January 2002 and October 2013 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 August 2009 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might 6 DOLPHIN LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 60.7%, between October 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 DOLPHIN LANE of £460,000 on 30th October 2013. For the value to have increased from £460,000 to £739,214 over the twelve years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 DOLPHIN LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The October 2013 sale price of £460,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
