31 MARTIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 MARTIN CLOSE sales from November 1998 and September 2000 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 1998 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the September 2000 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 31 MARTIN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 278.8%, between September 2000 and April 2026, for semi-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 278.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 31 MARTIN CLOSE of £78,000 on 8th September 2000. For the value to have increased from £78,000 to £295,480 over the 26 years and five months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
