BLACKWATER HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLACKWATER HOUSE sales from May 2003 and October 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 May 2003 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 96% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 96% above the HPI.

What might BLACKWATER HOUSE be worth now?

BLACKWATER HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,130,463.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.5%, between October 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLACKWATER HOUSE of £1,125,000 on 31st October 2022. For the value to have increased from £1,125,000 to £1,130,463 over the three years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
