ALVA HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ALVA HOUSE sales between December 2014 and April 2022 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 July 2016 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might ALVA HOUSE be worth now?

ALVA HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £729,396.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.7%, between April 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ALVA HOUSE of £710,000 on 8th April 2022. For the value to have increased from £710,000 to £729,396 over the three years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ALVA HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The April 2022 sale price of £710,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ALVA HOUSE has not materially changed since April 2022.
