BRIDGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BRIDGE COTTAGE sales from October 2006 and August 2022 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 October 2006 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might BRIDGE COTTAGE be worth now?

BRIDGE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £610,280.

This is based on house price deflation of 7.2%, between August 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.2% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for BRIDGE COTTAGE of £657,500 on 31st August 2022. For the value to have decreased from £657,500 to £610,280 over the three years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRIDGE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the New Forest local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £657,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRIDGE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2022.
