2 YEW TREE COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 YEW TREE COTTAGES sales between June 2001 and February 2017 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 June 2002 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might 2 YEW TREE COTTAGES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 26.2%, between February 2017 and December 2024, for semi-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 26.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 YEW TREE COTTAGES of £400,000 on 10th February 2017. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £504,774 over the six years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 YEW TREE COTTAGES has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The February 2017 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
