BIRLING SOUTH EAST COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRLING SOUTH EAST COTTAGE sales from September 2004 and July 2016 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 September 2004 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.

What might BIRLING SOUTH EAST COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 40.1%, between July 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 40.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BIRLING SOUTH EAST COTTAGE of £385,000 on 29th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £385,000 to £539,420 over the nine years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
