17 ORCHARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 ORCHARD CLOSE sales from May 2002 and December 2010 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 May 2002 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the December 2010 sale, where it rises to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 17 ORCHARD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 75.5%, between December 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Sussex local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 75.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 ORCHARD CLOSE of £312,500 on 21st December 2010. For the value to have increased from £312,500 to £548,471 over the fifteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The December 2010 sale price of £312,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
