6 SHIMBROOKS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 SHIMBROOKS sales from September 2006 and May 2012 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 2006 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 6 SHIMBROOKS be worth now?

6 SHIMBROOKS might now be worth an estimated £456,648.

This is based on house price inflation of 82.7%, between May 2012 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 82.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 SHIMBROOKS of £249,995 on 24th May 2012. For the value to have increased from £249,995 to £456,648 over the eleven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
