ALPINE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ALPINE COTTAGE sales between November 1999 and January 2015 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 July 2006 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might ALPINE COTTAGE be worth now?

ALPINE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £608,406.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.1%, between January 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Stroud local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ALPINE COTTAGE of £400,000 on 7th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £608,406 over the eight years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ALPINE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stroud local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ALPINE COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2015.
