BLENHEIM 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 BLENHEIM HOUSE sales from July 2006 and September 2019 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 2006 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might BLENHEIM HOUSE be worth now?
