5 ROOKS ACRE COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Adur local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 ROOKS ACRE COTTAGES sales between June 1998 and February 2006 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 June 2004 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the February 2006 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 5 ROOKS ACRE COTTAGES be worth now?

5 ROOKS ACRE COTTAGES might now be worth an estimated £539,448.

This is based on house price inflation of 117.1%, between February 2006 and August 2025, for terraced houses, in the Adur local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 117.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ROOKS ACRE COTTAGES of £248,500 on 3rd February 2006. For the value to have increased from £248,500 to £539,448 over the eighteen years and six months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
