22 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 three 22 THE CLOSE sales between October 2002 and September 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 May 2019 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 22 THE CLOSE be worth now?

22 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £484,249.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.7%, between September 2020 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 16.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 THE CLOSE of £415,000 on 30th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £484,249 over the six years and five months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 22 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £415,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 22 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2020.
