The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 COMPTON DRIVE sales between May 1995 and November 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 October 2011 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it falls to 64% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% above the HPI.
42 COMPTON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £852,120.
