13 THE UPPER DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 13 THE UPPER DRIVE sales between March 1997 and December 2000 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 1999 sale was for 113% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 113% above the HPI over time, until the December 2000 sale, where it falls to 100% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 100% above the HPI.

What might 13 THE UPPER DRIVE be worth now?

13 THE UPPER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £1,730,841.

This is based on house price inflation of 284.6%, between December 2000 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Brighton and Hove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 284.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 THE UPPER DRIVE of £450,000 on 8th December 2000. For the value to have increased from £450,000 to £1,730,841 over the 25 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 13 THE UPPER DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Brighton and Hove local authority area.
• The December 2000 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
