KITTIWAKE 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 four KITTIWAKE sales between March 1996 and February 2012 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 August 2004 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the February 2012 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might KITTIWAKE be worth now?

KITTIWAKE might now be worth an estimated £424,168.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.1%, between February 2012 and December 2024, 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 60.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KITTIWAKE of £265,000 on 29th February 2012. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £424,168 over the eleven years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KITTIWAKE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The February 2012 sale price of £265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KITTIWAKE has not materially changed since February 2012.
