ASH TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ASH TREE COTTAGE sales between January 2003 and April 2020 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 April 2010 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the April 2020 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might ASH TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

ASH TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £445,975.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.5%, between April 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Ashford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ASH TREE COTTAGE of £370,000 on 3rd April 2020. For the value to have increased from £370,000 to £445,975 over the five years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ASH TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Ashford local authority area.
• The April 2020 sale price of £370,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ASH TREE COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2020.
