4 THE NURSERIES 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 4 THE NURSERIES sales from March 2003 and December 2013 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 March 2003 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 4 THE NURSERIES be worth now?

4 THE NURSERIES might now be worth an estimated £799,276.

This is based on house price inflation of 59.9%, between December 2013 and December 2024, 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 59.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE NURSERIES of £500,000 on 19th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £799,276 over the eleven years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE NURSERIES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The December 2013 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE NURSERIES has not materially changed since December 2013.
