The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 159 MELFORD ROAD sales from May 2014 and May 2023 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 2014 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.
159 MELFORD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £249,561.
This is based on house price inflation of 1.4%, between May 2023 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Babergh local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 1.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 159 MELFORD ROAD of £246,000 on 12th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £246,000 to £249,561 over the one year and eleven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
