GROOMS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Harborough local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GROOMS COTTAGE sales from August 2014 and May 2023 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 2014 sale was for 74% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 61% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% below the HPI.

What might GROOMS COTTAGE be worth now?

GROOMS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £188,392.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.7%, between May 2023 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Harborough local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GROOMS COTTAGE of £180,000 on 26th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £180,000 to £188,392 over the two years and two months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GROOMS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Harborough local authority area.
