CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE sales from June 1999 and April 2022 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 1999 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE be worth now?

CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £585,571.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.7%, between April 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE of £570,000 on 8th April 2022. For the value to have increased from £570,000 to £585,571 over the three years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The April 2022 sale price of £570,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHRISTOPHER COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2022.
