FRESHFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four FRESHFIELDS sales between February 2009 and April 2024 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 October 2020 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might FRESHFIELDS be worth now?

FRESHFIELDS might now be worth an estimated £433,879.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.5%, between April 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 8.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FRESHFIELDS of £400,000 on 19th April 2024. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £433,879 over the one year and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FRESHFIELDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The April 2024 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FRESHFIELDS has not materially changed since April 2024.
