5 THE HERONS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 THE HERONS sales between December 2000 and April 2010 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 May 2006 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, which was also at 8% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE HERONS be worth now?

5 THE HERONS might now be worth an estimated £283,202.

This is based on house price inflation of 65.1%, between April 2010 and June 2025, for terraced 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 65.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE HERONS of £171,500 on 30th April 2010. For the value to have increased from £171,500 to £283,202 over the fourteen years and ten months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
