7 DOWNHAM ROAD 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 7 DOWNHAM ROAD sales from June 1999 and February 2001 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 June 1999 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the February 2001 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might 7 DOWNHAM ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 268.3%, between February 2001 and February 2025, 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 268.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 DOWNHAM ROAD of £146,000 on 26th February 2001. For the value to have increased from £146,000 to £537,659 over the 24 years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
