COVE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two COVE COTTAGE sales from April 2008 and June 2024 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 April 2008 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the June 2024 sale, where it rises to 87% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 87% above the HPI.

What might COVE COTTAGE be worth now?

COVE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £671,807.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.1%, between June 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for COVE COTTAGE of £610,000 on 13th June 2024. For the value to have increased from £610,000 to £671,807 over the one year and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of COVE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The June 2024 sale price of £610,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of COVE COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2024.
