SYCAMORE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SYCAMORE COTTAGE sales from July 1999 and October 2012 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 July 1999 sale was for 137% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 137% above the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 74% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 74% above the HPI.

What might SYCAMORE COTTAGE be worth now?

SYCAMORE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £462,533.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.3%, between October 2012 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Braintree local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 71.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SYCAMORE COTTAGE of £270,000 on 25th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £462,533 over the thirteen years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SYCAMORE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
