Land registry data shows three sales for LONG THATCHES since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the three sales, along with the average detached price in the Uttlesford local authority area for the corresponding sale date. All of the three LONG THATCHES sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
| Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
|---|---|---|---|
2010 10 AUG | £566,000 | £418,576 | 35% above HPI |
2005 15 DEC | £437,500 | £364,433 | 20% above HPI |

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LONG THATCHES sales between December 1999 and August 2010 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 December 2005 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it rises to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

LONG THATCHES might now be worth an estimated £991,560.
This is based on house price inflation of 75.2%, between August 2010 and July 2026, 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 75.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LONG THATCHES of £566,000 on 10th August 2010. For the value to have increased from £566,000 to £991,560 over the sixteen years and one month to July 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
