BYRE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BYRE COTTAGE sales between December 1996 and April 2024 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 March 1999 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might BYRE COTTAGE be worth now?

BYRE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £295,152.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.3%, between April 2024 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BYRE COTTAGE of £270,000 on 24th April 2024. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £295,152 over the four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BYRE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The April 2024 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BYRE COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2024.
