GARDEN 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 GARDEN COTTAGE sales from February 2003 and August 2019 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 February 2003 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it rises to 114% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 114% above the HPI.

What might GARDEN COTTAGE be worth now?

GARDEN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £867,638.

This is based on house price inflation of 27.6%, between August 2019 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 27.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GARDEN COTTAGE of £680,000 on 20th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £680,000 to £867,638 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GARDEN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The August 2019 sale price of £680,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GARDEN COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2019.
