CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE sales from February 1998 and July 2004 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 February 1998 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the July 2004 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE be worth now?

CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £864,585.

This is based on house price inflation of 108.3%, between July 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stevenage local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 108.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE of £415,000 on 26th July 2004. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £864,585 over the 21 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stevenage local authority area.
• The July 2004 sale price of £415,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHAUFFEURS COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2004.
