51 FIR LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 51 FIR LANE sales from December 1995 and November 1998 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 December 1995 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the November 1998 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 51 FIR LANE be worth now?

51 FIR LANE might now be worth an estimated £162,215.

This is based on house price inflation of 417.8%, between November 1998 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 417.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 51 FIR LANE of £31,325 on 27th November 1998. For the value to have increased from £31,325 to £162,215 over the 27 years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 51 FIR LANE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The November 1998 sale price of £31,325 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 51 FIR LANE has not materially changed since November 1998.
