GROOMS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four GROOMS COTTAGE sales between December 2014 and June 2020 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 2019 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it rises to 54% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% above the HPI.

What might GROOMS COTTAGE be worth now?

GROOMS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £797,953.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between June 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GROOMS COTTAGE of £665,000 on 26th June 2020. For the value to have increased from £665,000 to £797,953 over the five years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GROOMS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The June 2020 sale price of £665,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GROOMS COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2020.
