6 DESMOND CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 DESMOND CLOSE sales from September 2005 and March 2012 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 2005 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, which was also at 15% below the HPI.

What might 6 DESMOND CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73.5%, between March 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached 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 73.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 DESMOND CLOSE of £136,000 on 30th March 2012. For the value to have increased from £136,000 to £235,961 over the thirteen years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
