GABLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GABLE COTTAGE sales from August 2003 and May 2017 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 August 2003 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it rises to 77% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 77% above the HPI.

What might GABLE COTTAGE be worth now?

GABLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £717,890.

This is based on house price inflation of 46.5%, between May 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GABLE COTTAGE of £490,000 on 23rd May 2017. For the value to have increased from £490,000 to £717,890 over the eight years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GABLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The May 2017 sale price of £490,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GABLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2017.
