BLUEBELL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BLUEBELL COTTAGE sales from March 2015 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 March 2015 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might BLUEBELL COTTAGE be worth now?

BLUEBELL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £434,984.

This is based on house price inflation of 44.5%, between July 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire East local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 44.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLUEBELL COTTAGE of £301,000 on 1st July 2016. For the value to have increased from £301,000 to £434,984 over the seven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLUEBELL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire East local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £301,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLUEBELL COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2016.
