CHURCH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CHURCH COTTAGE sales from January 2002 and December 2020 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 January 2002 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might CHURCH COTTAGE be worth now?

CHURCH COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £461,901.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.4%, between December 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHURCH COTTAGE of £407,500 on 17th December 2020. For the value to have increased from £407,500 to £461,901 over the five years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHURCH COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £407,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHURCH COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2020.
