CUCKMERE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CUCKMERE sales from June 2012 and January 2021 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 2012 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it rises to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.

What might CUCKMERE be worth now?

CUCKMERE might now be worth an estimated £979,373.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.2%, between January 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CUCKMERE of £865,000 on 29th January 2021. For the value to have increased from £865,000 to £979,373 over the three years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CUCKMERE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The January 2021 sale price of £865,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CUCKMERE has not materially changed since January 2021.
