FURLONGS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FURLONGS COTTAGE sales between May 1996 and September 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 October 1996 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might FURLONGS COTTAGE be worth now?

FURLONGS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £681,592.

This is based on house price inflation of 57%, between September 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 57% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FURLONGS COTTAGE of £434,000 on 25th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £434,000 to £681,592 over the twelve years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FURLONGS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The September 2013 sale price of £434,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FURLONGS COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2013.
