FOREST COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FOREST COTTAGE sales from June 1995 and November 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 June 1995 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might FOREST COTTAGE be worth now?

FOREST COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £940,716.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.6%, between November 2013 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the West Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 53.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FOREST COTTAGE of £612,500 on 12th November 2013. For the value to have increased from £612,500 to £940,716 over the twelve years and eight months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FOREST COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The November 2013 sale price of £612,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FOREST COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2013.
