2 ORCHARD GATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 ORCHARD GATE sales from January 1999 and February 2026 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 January 1999 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the February 2026 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 2 ORCHARD GATE be worth now?
