HEDGEROWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HEDGEROWS sales from October 1998 and April 2002 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 October 1998 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the April 2002 sale, where it falls to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might HEDGEROWS be worth now?

HEDGEROWS might now be worth an estimated £625,553.

This is based on house price inflation of 160.6%, between April 2002 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 160.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HEDGEROWS of £240,000 on 17th April 2002. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £625,553 over the 21 years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HEDGEROWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The April 2002 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HEDGEROWS has not materially changed since April 2002.
