42 BRUCE CLOSE 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 three 42 BRUCE CLOSE sales between September 1995 and September 2023 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 August 2017 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 42 BRUCE CLOSE be worth now?

42 BRUCE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £469,253.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.1%, between September 2023 and February 2025, 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 3.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 BRUCE CLOSE of £455,000 on 18th September 2023. For the value to have increased from £455,000 to £469,253 over the two years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42 BRUCE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
