BLUEBELL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BLUEBELL COTTAGE sales between July 1996 and August 2014 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 2010 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might BLUEBELL COTTAGE be worth now?

BLUEBELL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £262,116.

This is based on house price inflation of 54.9%, between August 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torfaen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 54.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLUEBELL COTTAGE of £169,200 on 21st August 2014. For the value to have increased from £169,200 to £262,116 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLUEBELL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torfaen local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £169,200 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLUEBELL COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2014.
