7 THE RIDINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 THE RIDINGS sales between August 1997 and October 2014 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 October 2007 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 7 THE RIDINGS be worth now?

7 THE RIDINGS might now be worth an estimated £410,837.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.4%, between October 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Babergh local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 THE RIDINGS of £275,000 on 10th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £410,837 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 THE RIDINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Babergh local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 7 THE RIDINGS has not materially changed since October 2014.
