17 FARNCOMBE 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 17 FARNCOMBE CLOSE sales from January 1997 and January 1998 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 January 1997 sale was for 68% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 68% above the HPI over time, until the January 1998 sale, where it rises to 78% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 78% above the HPI.

What might 17 FARNCOMBE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 372.7%, between January 1998 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 372.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 FARNCOMBE CLOSE of £220,000 on 30th January 1998. For the value to have increased from £220,000 to £1,039,877 over the 26 years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 FARNCOMBE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
