79 ORCHARD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 79 ORCHARD ROAD sales between June 2011 and August 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 August 2017 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, which was also at 9% above the HPI.
