THE LIGHT HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE LIGHT HOUSE sales from August 1997 and September 2002 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 1997 sale was for 63% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% above the HPI over time, until the September 2002 sale, where it rises to 108% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 108% above the HPI.

What might THE LIGHT HOUSE be worth now?

THE LIGHT HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £747,955.

This is based on house price inflation of 149.3%, between September 2002 and August 2025, for detached houses, in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 149.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE LIGHT HOUSE of £300,000 on 16th September 2002. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £747,955 over the 23 years and one month to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE LIGHT HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area.
• The September 2002 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE LIGHT HOUSE has not materially changed since September 2002.
