UPPER STYLE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four UPPER STYLE sales between January 1999 and August 2025 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 2013 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the August 2025 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might UPPER STYLE be worth now?

UPPER STYLE might now be worth an estimated £489,815.

This is based on house price deflation of 4.9%, between August 2025 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.9% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for UPPER STYLE of £515,100 on 21st August 2025. For the value to have decreased from £515,100 to £489,815 over the one year and four months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of UPPER STYLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The August 2025 sale price of £515,100 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of UPPER STYLE has not materially changed since August 2025.
