BLYTHE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BLYTHE COTTAGE sales between August 2011 and March 2019 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 June 2016 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, which was also at 23% below the HPI.

What might BLYTHE COTTAGE be worth now?

BLYTHE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £187,242.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.7%, between March 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLYTHE COTTAGE of £149,000 on 1st March 2019. For the value to have increased from £149,000 to £187,242 over the six years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLYTHE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area.
• The March 2019 sale price of £149,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLYTHE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2019.
