The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 278 COLUMBINE ROAD sales from April 2002 and August 2006 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 April 2002 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.
278 COLUMBINE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £317,993.
This is based on house price inflation of 87.1%, between August 2006 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 87.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 278 COLUMBINE ROAD of £169,995 on 25th August 2006. For the value to have increased from £169,995 to £317,993 over the nineteen years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
