HAWK END COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four HAWK END COTTAGE sales between September 2006 and March 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 December 2013 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might HAWK END COTTAGE be worth now?

HAWK END COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £449,070.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.7%, between March 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HAWK END COTTAGE of £300,000 on 20th March 2015. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £449,070 over the ten years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HAWK END COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The March 2015 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
