The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 GUINEA CLOSE sales from June 1998 and October 2002 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 June 1998 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the October 2002 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

23 GUINEA CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £460,262.
This is based on house price inflation of 133.6%, between October 2002 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
