26 MERRIAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 MERRIAM CLOSE sales from May 2003 and November 2023 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 May 2003 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 26 MERRIAM CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 3.5%, between November 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Babergh local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 MERRIAM CLOSE of £350,000 on 3rd November 2023. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £362,263 over the two years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
