MARABU is a very small semi-detached house of 81m², built sometime between 1950 and 1966, which could now be worth an estimated £518,436. It was last sold for £127,000 in December 1999, which was around 30% above the average December 1999 semi-detached price in the Cheltenham local authority area. The most recent EPC inspection was July 2014, where the current energy rating was D, and the potential energy rating was B.
Land registry data shows two sales for MARABU since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average semi-detached price in the Cheltenham local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two MARABU sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
1999 20 DEC | £127,000 | £98,008 | ![]() 30% above HPI |
1998 22 SEP | £111,000 | £82,645 | ![]() 34% above HPI |
The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MARABU sales from September 1998 and December 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 September 1998 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the December 1999 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
MARABU might now be worth an estimated £518,436.
This is based on house price inflation of 308.2%, between December 1999 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cheltenham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 308.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MARABU of £127,000 on 20th December 1999. For the value to have increased from £127,000 to £518,436 over the 26 years and nine months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
