BLACKBIRD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLACKBIRD COTTAGE sales from November 2009 and June 2013 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 November 2009 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the June 2013 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might BLACKBIRD COTTAGE be worth now?

BLACKBIRD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £518,698.

This is based on house price inflation of 57.2%, between June 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 57.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLACKBIRD COTTAGE of £330,000 on 21st June 2013. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £518,698 over the twelve years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLACKBIRD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The June 2013 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLACKBIRD COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2013.
