5 LEE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 LEE CLOSE sales between September 1998 and July 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 September 2006 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 5 LEE CLOSE be worth now?

5 LEE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £389,597.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.8%, between July 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 LEE CLOSE of £250,000 on 25th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £389,597 over the eleven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 LEE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The July 2014 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 LEE CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2014.
