CARP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CARP COTTAGE sales between March 1997 and September 2013 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 1997 sale was for 74% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% below the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might CARP COTTAGE be worth now?

CARP COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £374,133.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.3%, between September 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stroud local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CARP COTTAGE of £225,000 on 20th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £374,133 over the twelve years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CARP COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stroud local authority area.
• The September 2013 sale price of £225,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CARP COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2013.
