CASTLE HILL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CASTLE HILL COTTAGE sales between December 1997 and September 2018 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 2003 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might CASTLE HILL COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.3%, between September 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cornwall local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CASTLE HILL COTTAGE of £265,000 on 4th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £339,973 over the seven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
