HOLLYCOMBE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HOLLYCOMBE sales between September 1996 and March 2004 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 2002 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the March 2004 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might HOLLYCOMBE be worth now?

HOLLYCOMBE might now be worth an estimated £713,151.

This is based on house price inflation of 113.5%, between March 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Rother local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 113.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOLLYCOMBE of £334,000 on 2nd March 2004. For the value to have increased from £334,000 to £713,151 over the 21 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOLLYCOMBE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rother local authority area.
• The March 2004 sale price of £334,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOLLYCOMBE has not materially changed since March 2004.
