BUXTON COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BUXTON COTTAGE sales from June 2020 and October 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 June 2020 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might BUXTON COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 9.1%, between October 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Eastbourne local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.1% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for BUXTON COTTAGE of £420,000 on 4th October 2022. For the value to have decreased from £420,000 to £381,738 over the three years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
