BARN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five BARN COTTAGE sales between January 1997 and April 2005 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 January 2003 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might BARN COTTAGE be worth now?

BARN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £323,429.

This is based on house price inflation of 65.9%, between April 2005 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 65.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BARN COTTAGE of £195,000 on 22nd April 2005. For the value to have increased from £195,000 to £323,429 over the twenty years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BARN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The April 2005 sale price of £195,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BARN COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2005.
