The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 PORTHOLE CLOSE sales between June 1999 and December 2011 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 February 2003 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
15 PORTHOLE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £223,063.
This is based on house price inflation of 67.7%, between December 2011 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 67.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 PORTHOLE CLOSE of £133,000 on 22nd December 2011. For the value to have increased from £133,000 to £223,063 over the fourteen years and five months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
