FOUR OAKS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FOUR OAKS sales from March 1995 and September 1999 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 1995 sale was for 161% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 161% above the HPI over time, until the September 1999 sale, where it falls to 142% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 142% above the HPI.

What might FOUR OAKS be worth now?

FOUR OAKS might now be worth an estimated £1,025,406.

This is based on house price inflation of 319.4%, between September 1999 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 319.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FOUR OAKS of £244,500 on 23rd September 1999. For the value to have increased from £244,500 to £1,025,406 over the 26 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FOUR OAKS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The September 1999 sale price of £244,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FOUR OAKS has not materially changed since September 1999.
