The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 48 ORCHARD CLOSE sales between October 2012 and May 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 March 2021 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.
48 ORCHARD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £348,651.
