MOONSHADOW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MOONSHADOW sales between November 1996 and December 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 December 2001 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might MOONSHADOW be worth now?

MOONSHADOW might now be worth an estimated £539,136.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.9%, between December 2009 and March 2025, for 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 85.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MOONSHADOW of £290,000 on 18th December 2009. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £539,136 over the sixteen years and nine months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MOONSHADOW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The December 2009 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MOONSHADOW has not materially changed since December 2009.
