DEVON COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DEVON COTTAGE sales from October 2007 and August 2014 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 2007 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might DEVON COTTAGE be worth now?

DEVON COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £482,133.

This is based on house price inflation of 46.1%, between August 2014 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DEVON COTTAGE of £329,950 on 1st August 2014. For the value to have increased from £329,950 to £482,133 over the eleven years and five months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
