The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 DOWNHAM ROAD sales from November 2000 and January 2025 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 2000 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 79% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 79% above the HPI.
49 DOWNHAM ROAD might now be worth an estimated £848,410.
This is based on house price inflation of 1.4%, between January 2025 and June 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).
