CORNER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CORNER COTTAGE sales from June 2001 and July 2003 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 2001 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might CORNER COTTAGE be worth now?

CORNER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £357,080.

This is based on house price inflation of 155.1%, between July 2003 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the North Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 155.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CORNER COTTAGE of £139,950 on 3rd July 2003. For the value to have increased from £139,950 to £357,080 over the 22 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CORNER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The July 2003 sale price of £139,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
