ALDER COTTAGE 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 ALDER COTTAGE sales from June 1997 and October 2014 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 1997 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 176% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 176% above the HPI.

What might ALDER COTTAGE be worth now?

ALDER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,012,531.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.8%, between October 2014 and February 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 55.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ALDER COTTAGE of £650,000 on 29th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £650,000 to £1,012,531 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ALDER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £650,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ALDER COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2014.
