23 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 23 THE CLOSE sales between June 1997 and December 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 October 2018 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the December 2025 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 23 THE CLOSE be worth now?

23 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £214,718.

This is based on house price deflation of 3.7%, between December 2025 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Tendring local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 THE CLOSE of £223,000 on 12th December 2025. For the value to have decreased from £223,000 to £214,718 over the one year and seven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Tendring local authority area.
• The December 2025 sale price of £223,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 23 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since December 2025.
