APRIL COTTAGE 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 APRIL COTTAGE sales from May 2006 and June 2024 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 May 2006 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the June 2024 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might APRIL COTTAGE be worth now?

APRIL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £657,553.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.7%, between June 2024 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 1.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for APRIL COTTAGE of £669,000 on 19th June 2024. For the value to have decreased from £669,000 to £657,553 over the one year and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of APRIL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The June 2024 sale price of £669,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of APRIL COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2024.
