BOSINVER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BOSINVER COTTAGE sales between April 2001 and October 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 May 2005 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might BOSINVER COTTAGE be worth now?

BOSINVER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £348,864.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.1%, between October 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cornwall local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BOSINVER COTTAGE of £225,000 on 29th October 2013. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £348,864 over the twelve years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BOSINVER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cornwall local authority area.
• The October 2013 sale price of £225,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BOSINVER COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2013.
