53A DERWENT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cambridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 53A DERWENT CLOSE sales from February 2004 and May 2006 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 February 2004 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the May 2006 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 53A DERWENT CLOSE be worth now?

53A DERWENT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £704,291.

This is based on house price inflation of 118%, between May 2006 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cambridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 118% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53A DERWENT CLOSE of £323,000 on 23rd May 2006. For the value to have increased from £323,000 to £704,291 over the nineteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 53A DERWENT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cambridge local authority area.
• The May 2006 sale price of £323,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
