SHEPHERDS HOUSE 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 three SHEPHERDS HOUSE sales between July 1996 and April 2009 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 2001 sale was for 91% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 91% above the HPI over time, until the April 2009 sale, where it falls to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.

What might SHEPHERDS HOUSE be worth now?

SHEPHERDS HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,083,967.

This is based on house price inflation of 90.2%, between April 2009 and December 2024, 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 90.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SHEPHERDS HOUSE of £570,000 on 16th April 2009. For the value to have increased from £570,000 to £1,083,967 over the fourteen years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
