7 MELFORD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 7 MELFORD CLOSE sales between March 1998 and December 2024 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 November 2017 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 7 MELFORD CLOSE be worth now?

7 MELFORD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £548,449.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.6%, between December 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 MELFORD CLOSE of £540,000 on 6th December 2024. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £548,449 over the one year and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 MELFORD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
