9 DORSET CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Ipswich local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 9 DORSET CLOSE sales between August 1995 and June 2004 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 July 1999 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the June 2004 sale, where it falls to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.

What might 9 DORSET CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 86.3%, between June 2004 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Ipswich local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 86.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 DORSET CLOSE of £168,500 on 11th June 2004. For the value to have increased from £168,500 to £313,878 over the twenty years and eleven months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 9 DORSET CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Ipswich local authority area.
