23 METCALFE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cambridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 23 METCALFE ROAD sales between May 1998 and October 2005 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 July 2003 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 23 METCALFE ROAD be worth now?

23 METCALFE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £671,710.

This is based on house price inflation of 127.7%, between October 2005 and June 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cambridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 127.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 METCALFE ROAD of £295,000 on 7th October 2005. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £671,710 over the twenty years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 METCALFE ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cambridge local authority area.
• The October 2005 sale price of £295,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
