5 THE DROVEWAY 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 four 5 THE DROVEWAY sales between May 2000 and October 2017 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 April 2015 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it falls to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might 5 THE DROVEWAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 20.7%, between October 2017 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 20.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE DROVEWAY of £850,000 on 12th October 2017. For the value to have increased from £850,000 to £1,026,289 over the eight years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE DROVEWAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The October 2017 sale price of £850,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
