FERNLEA 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 two FERNLEA sales from March 2002 and May 2011 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 2002 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.

What might FERNLEA be worth now?

FERNLEA might now be worth an estimated £403,860.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.9%, between May 2011 and June 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 77.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FERNLEA of £227,000 on 27th May 2011. For the value to have increased from £227,000 to £403,860 over the thirteen years and eleven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FERNLEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The May 2011 sale price of £227,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FERNLEA has not materially changed since May 2011.
