42 BUSHEL LANE 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 three 42 BUSHEL LANE sales between July 1999 and February 2016 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 January 2005 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 42 BUSHEL LANE be worth now?

42 BUSHEL LANE might now be worth an estimated £281,936.

This is based on house price inflation of 41.7%, between February 2016 and February 2025, 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 41.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 BUSHEL LANE of £199,000 on 25th February 2016. For the value to have increased from £199,000 to £281,936 over the nine years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42 BUSHEL LANE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The February 2016 sale price of £199,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
