GLEN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four GLEN COTTAGE sales between August 2002 and February 2015 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 July 2012 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might GLEN COTTAGE be worth now?

GLEN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £376,986.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.6%, between February 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Stroud local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GLEN COTTAGE of £247,000 on 9th February 2015. For the value to have increased from £247,000 to £376,986 over the eight years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GLEN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stroud local authority area.
• The February 2015 sale price of £247,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GLEN COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2015.
