MEADOW SIDE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MEADOW SIDE sales from October 2020 and December 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 October 2020 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it rises to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might MEADOW SIDE be worth now?

MEADOW SIDE might now be worth an estimated £878,667.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.4%, between December 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MEADOW SIDE of £850,000 on 4th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £850,000 to £878,667 over the two years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MEADOW SIDE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £850,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MEADOW SIDE has not materially changed since December 2023.
