BOMBERS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BOMBERS COTTAGE sales from January 1997 and June 2024 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 January 1997 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the June 2024 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might BOMBERS COTTAGE be worth now?

BOMBERS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,154,873.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.6%, between June 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Sevenoaks local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BOMBERS COTTAGE of £1,115,000 on 12th June 2024. For the value to have increased from £1,115,000 to £1,154,873 over the one year and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BOMBERS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The June 2024 sale price of £1,115,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
