OAKCROFT FARM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OAKCROFT FARM sales from October 1998 and March 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 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the March 2002 sale, where it falls to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.

What might OAKCROFT FARM be worth now?

OAKCROFT FARM might now be worth an estimated £745,543.

This is based on house price inflation of 176.1%, between March 2002 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 176.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OAKCROFT FARM of £270,000 on 22nd March 2002. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £745,543 over the 23 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OAKCROFT FARM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The March 2002 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OAKCROFT FARM has not materially changed since March 2002.
