FERN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tameside local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FERN COTTAGE sales between October 2011 and July 2023 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 January 2018 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might FERN COTTAGE be worth now?

FERN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £244,965.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.1%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tameside local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FERN COTTAGE of £237,500 on 13th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £237,500 to £244,965 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FERN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tameside local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £237,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FERN COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2023.
