FOREST LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FOREST LODGE sales from May 2010 and November 2024 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 2010 sale was for 48% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% above the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it rises to 127% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 127% above the HPI.

What might FOREST LODGE be worth now?

FOREST LODGE might now be worth an estimated £1,211,559.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.8%, between November 2024 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FOREST LODGE of £1,190,000 on 25th November 2024. For the value to have increased from £1,190,000 to £1,211,559 over the one year and eight months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FOREST LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The November 2024 sale price of £1,190,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FOREST LODGE has not materially changed since November 2024.
