1 FERN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 FERN CLOSE sales between May 2006 and January 2022 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 December 2017 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, which was also at 24% below the HPI.

What might 1 FERN CLOSE be worth now?

1 FERN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £269,383.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.7%, between January 2022 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Eastbourne local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 FERN CLOSE of £265,000 on 28th January 2022. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £269,383 over the two years and ten months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 FERN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Eastbourne local authority area.
• The January 2022 sale price of £265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 FERN CLOSE has not materially changed since January 2022.
