13 KINGSMERE CLOSE 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 13 KINGSMERE CLOSE sales from May 1997 and December 2004 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 May 1997 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the December 2004 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 13 KINGSMERE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 90.1%, between December 2004 and March 2026, 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 90.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 KINGSMERE CLOSE of £249,995 on 6th December 2004. For the value to have increased from £249,995 to £475,323 over the 22 years and nine months to March 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
