16 WYCH ELM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 WYCH ELM sales between August 1998 and December 2024 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 November 2019 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 16 WYCH ELM be worth now?

16 WYCH ELM might now be worth an estimated £319,264.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.4%, between December 2024 and October 2025, for semi-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 1.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 WYCH ELM of £315,000 on 13th December 2024. For the value to have increased from £315,000 to £319,264 over the one year and two months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 WYCH ELM has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The December 2024 sale price of £315,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
