BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE sales between February 1995 and October 2017 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 December 2005 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE be worth now?

BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £472,645.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.1%, between October 2017 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE of £384,000 on 20th October 2017. For the value to have increased from £384,000 to £472,645 over the eight years and seven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The October 2017 sale price of £384,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BAKEHOUSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2017.
