TYEWOOD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TYEWOOD COTTAGE sales from January 1997 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 January 1997 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the March 2002 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might TYEWOOD COTTAGE be worth now?

TYEWOOD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £445,860.

This is based on house price inflation of 218.5%, between March 2002 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 218.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TYEWOOD COTTAGE of £140,000 on 15th March 2002. For the value to have increased from £140,000 to £445,860 over the 23 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TYEWOOD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The March 2002 sale price of £140,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TYEWOOD COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2002.
