BRACKEN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BRACKEN COTTAGE sales from September 1996 and May 2011 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 September 1996 sale was for 134% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 134% above the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it rises to 173% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 173% above the HPI.

What might BRACKEN COTTAGE be worth now?

BRACKEN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,213,894.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.4%, between May 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRACKEN COTTAGE of £725,000 on 20th May 2011. For the value to have increased from £725,000 to £1,213,894 over the fourteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRACKEN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The May 2011 sale price of £725,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRACKEN COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2011.
