12 THE APPROACH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rochford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 12 THE APPROACH sales between November 1998 and September 2025 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 April 2019 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the September 2025 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 12 THE APPROACH be worth now?

12 THE APPROACH might now be worth an estimated £494,841.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.5%, between September 2025 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Rochford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 THE APPROACH of £487,500 on 2nd September 2025. For the value to have increased from £487,500 to £494,841 over the one year and four months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 THE APPROACH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rochford local authority area.
• The September 2025 sale price of £487,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 12 THE APPROACH has not materially changed since September 2025.
