FIR TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FIR TREE COTTAGE sales between March 2005 and July 2013 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 2007 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might FIR TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

FIR TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £531,079.

This is based on house price inflation of 51.7%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FIR TREE COTTAGE of £350,000 on 19th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £531,079 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FIR TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The July 2013 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FIR TREE COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2013.
