17 THE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 THE DRIVE sales from May 2012 and July 2016 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 2012 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it falls to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might 17 THE DRIVE be worth now?

17 THE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £462,456.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.3%, between July 2016 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 30.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 THE DRIVE of £355,000 on 26th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £355,000 to £462,456 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 THE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £355,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
