GARDEN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mole Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GARDEN COTTAGE sales from November 2002 and March 2021 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 November 2002 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might GARDEN COTTAGE be worth now?

GARDEN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £965,435.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.6%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mole Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GARDEN COTTAGE of £850,000 on 5th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £850,000 to £965,435 over the four years and one month 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 Mole Valley local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £850,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GARDEN COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2021.
