38 COMMON LANE 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 38 COMMON LANE sales from November 1999 and September 2015 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 November 1999 sale was for 136% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 136% above the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it falls to 117% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 117% above the HPI.

What might 38 COMMON LANE be worth now?

38 COMMON LANE might now be worth an estimated £1,264,412.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.4%, between September 2015 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 28.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 COMMON LANE of £985,000 on 2nd September 2015. For the value to have increased from £985,000 to £1,264,412 over the ten years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 38 COMMON LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The September 2015 sale price of £985,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
