Land registry data shows two sales for 6 SAFFRON GARDENS since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average semi-detached price in the Braintree local authority area for the corresponding sale date. One of the two 6 SAFFRON GARDENS sales was roughly equal to the average price, whilst the other was for below the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 SAFFRON GARDENS sales from May 1997 and September 2004 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 May 1997 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the September 2004 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
6 SAFFRON GARDENS might now be worth an estimated £336,021.
This is based on house price inflation of 92%, between September 2004 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 92% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 SAFFRON GARDENS of £175,000 on 17th September 2004. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £336,021 over the 21 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
