The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 28 TOLKIEN ROAD sales between July 1995 and May 2022 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 September 2007 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.
