The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 SUSSEX ROAD sales between February 1995 and September 2016 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 November 2003 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.
7 SUSSEX ROAD might now be worth an estimated £425,877.
This is based on house price inflation of 25.3%, between September 2016 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 25.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 SUSSEX ROAD of £340,000 on 23rd September 2016. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £425,877 over the nine years and two months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
