THE FOLLY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE FOLLY sales between June 1995 and August 2021 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 August 2012 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.
