HIGHBURN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHBURN sales from September 2004 and July 2010 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 September 2004 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might HIGHBURN be worth now?

HIGHBURN might now be worth an estimated £539,109.

This is based on house price inflation of 56.3%, between July 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 56.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHBURN of £345,000 on 2nd July 2010. For the value to have increased from £345,000 to £539,109 over the fifteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHBURN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The July 2010 sale price of £345,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHBURN has not materially changed since July 2010.
