CARPE DIEM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CARPE DIEM COTTAGE sales between August 1997 and July 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 June 2010 sale was for 79% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 79% above the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it falls to 64% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% above the HPI.

What might CARPE DIEM COTTAGE be worth now?

CARPE DIEM COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £693,880.

This is based on house price inflation of 54.2%, between July 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 54.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CARPE DIEM COTTAGE of £450,000 on 9th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £450,000 to £693,880 over the eleven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CARPE DIEM COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The July 2014 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
