42 DARWIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 DARWIN CLOSE sales between April 2002 and July 2009 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 October 2004 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 42 DARWIN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 107.6%, between July 2009 and April 2026, 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 107.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 DARWIN CLOSE of £148,000 on 24th July 2009. For the value to have increased from £148,000 to £307,313 over the seventeen years and three months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
