GORSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GORSE COTTAGE sales from May 1995 and July 2024 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 May 1995 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might GORSE COTTAGE be worth now?

GORSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £740,776.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.8%, between July 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GORSE COTTAGE of £700,000 on 26th July 2024. For the value to have increased from £700,000 to £740,776 over the one year and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GORSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2024 sale price of £700,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GORSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2024.
