BRIAR COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wyre local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BRIAR COTTAGE sales between March 1998 and August 2014 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 July 2001 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 77% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 77% above the HPI.

What might BRIAR COTTAGE be worth now?

BRIAR COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £547,377.

This is based on house price inflation of 46%, between August 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wyre local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRIAR COTTAGE of £375,000 on 4th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £547,377 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRIAR COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wyre local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £375,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRIAR COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2014.
