OLD MEAD HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OLD MEAD HOUSE sales from November 2015 and January 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 November 2015 sale was for 78% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 78% above the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might OLD MEAD HOUSE be worth now?

OLD MEAD HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £962,875.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.4%, between January 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OLD MEAD HOUSE of £940,000 on 30th January 2023. For the value to have increased from £940,000 to £962,875 over the one year and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
