COWPEN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hampshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three COWPEN COTTAGE sales between January 2001 and August 2011 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 December 2005 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it falls to 57% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 57% above the HPI.

What might COWPEN COTTAGE be worth now?

COWPEN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,077,321.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.8%, between August 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Hampshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for COWPEN COTTAGE of £705,000 on 19th August 2011. For the value to have increased from £705,000 to £1,077,321 over the fourteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of COWPEN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Hampshire local authority area.
• The August 2011 sale price of £705,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of COWPEN COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2011.
