2 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 THE CLOSE sales from August 2007 and September 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 August 2007 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 2 THE CLOSE be worth now?

2 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £955,656.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.6%, between September 2022 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Mid Sussex local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE CLOSE of £950,000 on 6th September 2022. For the value to have increased from £950,000 to £955,656 over the four years and five months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The September 2022 sale price of £950,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2022.
