LITTLE MEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LITTLE MEAD sales from September 1997 and November 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 1997 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might LITTLE MEAD be worth now?

LITTLE MEAD might now be worth an estimated £783,833.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.6%, between November 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Lewes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 61.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLE MEAD of £485,000 on 30th November 2010. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £783,833 over the fifteen years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLE MEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The November 2010 sale price of £485,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LITTLE MEAD has not materially changed since November 2010.
