THE OLD RECTORY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE OLD RECTORY sales between June 1995 and December 2020 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 2014 sale was for 164% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 164% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 183% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 183% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD RECTORY be worth now?

THE OLD RECTORY might now be worth an estimated £1,026,189.

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between December 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Arun local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD RECTORY of £885,000 on 3rd December 2020. For the value to have increased from £885,000 to £1,026,189 over the five years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD RECTORY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Arun local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £885,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD RECTORY has not materially changed since December 2020.
