13 FIRLE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 13 FIRLE CLOSE sales from September 1998 and November 2013 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 September 1998 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 13 FIRLE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 49%, between November 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Lewes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 FIRLE CLOSE of £418,500 on 4th November 2013. For the value to have increased from £418,500 to £623,419 over the twelve years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
