23 POPPY GARDENS 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 23 POPPY GARDENS sales between September 1995 and January 2025 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 August 2013 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 23 POPPY GARDENS be worth now?

The 1.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 POPPY GARDENS of £320,000 on 23rd January 2025. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £324,513 over the three months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
