HALCYON COTTAGE 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 two HALCYON COTTAGE sales from May 2000 and August 2014 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 2000 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might HALCYON COTTAGE be worth now?

HALCYON COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £738,461.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.4%, between August 2014 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 48.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HALCYON COTTAGE of £497,500 on 1st August 2014. For the value to have increased from £497,500 to £738,461 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
