LEYCOT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LEYCOT sales between July 1995 and August 2009 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 June 1999 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might LEYCOT be worth now?

LEYCOT might now be worth an estimated £1,335,922.

This is based on house price inflation of 93.6%, between August 2009 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 93.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LEYCOT of £690,000 on 21st August 2009. For the value to have increased from £690,000 to £1,335,922 over the sixteen years and five months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LEYCOT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The August 2009 sale price of £690,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LEYCOT has not materially changed since August 2009.
