24 THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 24 THE BIRCHES sales between November 1999 and February 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 January 2020 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the February 2025 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might 24 THE BIRCHES be worth now?

24 THE BIRCHES might now be worth an estimated £408,414.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.1%, between February 2025 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 THE BIRCHES of £400,000 on 28th February 2025. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £408,414 over the ten months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 24 THE BIRCHES has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Castle Point local authority area.
• The February 2025 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
