DECEMBER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Barnsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DECEMBER COTTAGE sales from October 1997 and October 2006 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 October 1997 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the October 2006 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might DECEMBER COTTAGE be worth now?

DECEMBER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £225,595.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.9%, between October 2006 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Barnsley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DECEMBER COTTAGE of £147,500 on 12th October 2006. For the value to have increased from £147,500 to £225,595 over the seventeen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DECEMBER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Barnsley local authority area.
• The October 2006 sale price of £147,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DECEMBER COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2006.
