BEECH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BEECH COTTAGE sales between July 1999 and March 2021 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 2009 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 101% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 101% above the HPI.

What might BEECH COTTAGE be worth now?

BEECH COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £941,277.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.5%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BEECH COTTAGE of £815,000 on 19th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £815,000 to £941,277 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BEECH COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £815,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BEECH COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2021.
