LONG ACRES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LONG ACRES sales between May 1996 and September 2023 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 2012 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 66% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% above the HPI.

What might LONG ACRES be worth now?

LONG ACRES might now be worth an estimated £1,111,645.

This is based on house price deflation of 2.8%, between September 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for LONG ACRES of £1,144,000 on 25th September 2023. For the value to have decreased from £1,144,000 to £1,111,645 over the nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LONG ACRES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The September 2023 sale price of £1,144,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LONG ACRES has not materially changed since September 2023.
