CENTENARY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three CENTENARY COTTAGE sales between January 1997 and June 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 July 2006 sale was for 205% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 205% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 212% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 212% above the HPI.

What might CENTENARY COTTAGE be worth now?

CENTENARY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £852,898.

This is based on house price inflation of 56.5%, between June 2014 and December 2024, for semi-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 56.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CENTENARY COTTAGE of £545,000 on 13th June 2014. For the value to have increased from £545,000 to £852,898 over the nine years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CENTENARY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The June 2014 sale price of £545,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CENTENARY COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2014.
