SOUTH DOWNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tewkesbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOUTH DOWNS sales from August 1998 and December 2002 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 1998 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the December 2002 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might SOUTH DOWNS be worth now?

SOUTH DOWNS might now be worth an estimated £682,592.

This is based on house price inflation of 127.5%, between December 2002 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tewkesbury local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 127.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOUTH DOWNS of £300,000 on 4th December 2002. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £682,592 over the 23 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOUTH DOWNS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tewkesbury local authority area.
• The December 2002 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOUTH DOWNS has not materially changed since December 2002.
