BRITTENS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five BRITTENS COTTAGE sales between May 2001 and March 2020 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 November 2011 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might BRITTENS COTTAGE be worth now?

BRITTENS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £530,697.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.2%, between March 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRITTENS COTTAGE of £438,000 on 10th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £438,000 to £530,697 over the five years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRITTENS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The March 2020 sale price of £438,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
