ORCHARD LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ORCHARD LEA sales from April 2009 and November 2015 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 April 2009 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD LEA be worth now?

ORCHARD LEA might now be worth an estimated £514,282.

This is based on house price inflation of 39%, between November 2015 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Babergh local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 39% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD LEA of £370,000 on 27th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £370,000 to £514,282 over the ten years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD LEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Babergh local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £370,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD LEA has not materially changed since November 2015.
