BRIAR COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BRIAR COTTAGE sales from August 1999 and December 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 August 1999 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the December 2019 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might BRIAR COTTAGE be worth now?

BRIAR COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £308,193.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.5%, between December 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRIAR COTTAGE of £245,500 on 23rd December 2019. For the value to have increased from £245,500 to £308,193 over the five years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRIAR COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The December 2019 sale price of £245,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRIAR COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2019.
