3 LAURENCE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Chelmsford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 LAURENCE CROFT sales between November 1996 and January 2014 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 November 2010 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 3 LAURENCE CROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 74.1%, between January 2014 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Chelmsford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LAURENCE CROFT of £238,000 on 13th January 2014. For the value to have increased from £238,000 to £414,475 over the ten years and seven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 LAURENCE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Chelmsford local authority area.
• The January 2014 sale price of £238,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
