SPARROWS 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 three SPARROWS sales between May 1999 and July 2011 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 February 2008 sale was for 159% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 159% above the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 163% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 163% above the HPI.

What might SPARROWS be worth now?

SPARROWS might now be worth an estimated £1,290,716.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.8%, between July 2011 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 69.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SPARROWS of £760,000 on 8th July 2011. For the value to have increased from £760,000 to £1,290,716 over the fourteen years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SPARROWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Babergh local authority area.
• The July 2011 sale price of £760,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SPARROWS has not materially changed since July 2011.
