1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE sales from April 1999 and August 2023 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 1999 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE be worth now?

1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £490,794.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.7%, between August 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Arun local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE of £487,500 on 25th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £487,500 to £490,794 over the two years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Arun local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £487,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 HIGHDOWN CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2023.
