THE OLD RECTORY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five THE OLD RECTORY sales between June 1997 and January 2013 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 2007 sale was for 98% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 98% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 86% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 86% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD RECTORY be worth now?

THE OLD RECTORY might now be worth an estimated £835,947.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.2%, between January 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD RECTORY of £500,000 on 18th January 2013. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £835,947 over the eleven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD RECTORY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Suffolk local authority area.
• The January 2013 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD RECTORY has not materially changed since January 2013.
