3 DARWIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 DARWIN CLOSE sales from February 2002 and May 2005 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 February 2002 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 3 DARWIN CLOSE be worth now?

3 DARWIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £491,215.

This is based on house price inflation of 111.3%, between May 2005 and March 2025, for detached 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 111.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 DARWIN CLOSE of £232,500 on 6th May 2005. For the value to have increased from £232,500 to £491,215 over the twenty years and two months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 DARWIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The May 2005 sale price of £232,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
