WOODLANDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Braintree local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five WOODLANDS sales between February 2001 and April 2025 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 2009 sale was for 127% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 127% above the HPI over time, until the April 2025 sale, where it falls to 68% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% above the HPI.

What might WOODLANDS be worth now?

WOODLANDS might now be worth an estimated £956,050.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.3%, between April 2025 and July 2026, for detached 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 2.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOODLANDS of £935,000 on 30th April 2025. For the value to have increased from £935,000 to £956,050 over the nine months to July 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOODLANDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Braintree local authority area.
• The April 2025 sale price of £935,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOODLANDS has not materially changed since April 2025.
