CULVER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five CULVER COTTAGE sales between August 1996 and February 2016 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 September 2010 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might CULVER COTTAGE be worth now?

CULVER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,030,737.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.5%, between February 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CULVER COTTAGE of £815,000 on 26th February 2016. For the value to have increased from £815,000 to £1,030,737 over the nine years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CULVER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The February 2016 sale price of £815,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CULVER COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2016.
