8 SCHOOL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 SCHOOL CLOSE sales between February 2011 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 March 2021 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 8 SCHOOL CLOSE be worth now?

8 SCHOOL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £347,900.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.6%, between December 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.6% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 SCHOOL CLOSE of £350,000 on 3rd December 2024. For the value to have decreased from £350,000 to £347,900 over the one year and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 SCHOOL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The December 2024 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 SCHOOL CLOSE has not materially changed since December 2024.
