1 LARCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hastings local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 LARCH CLOSE sales between October 2003 and August 2014 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 October 2005 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 1 LARCH CLOSE be worth now?

1 LARCH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £517,878.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.8%, between August 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Hastings 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 1 LARCH CLOSE of £305,000 on 4th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £517,878 over the nine years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LARCH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Hastings local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
