HEATHER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HEATHER COTTAGE sales from April 1997 and July 2014 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 April 1997 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might HEATHER COTTAGE be worth now?

HEATHER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £410,039.

This is based on house price inflation of 64%, between July 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Rother local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 64% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HEATHER COTTAGE of £250,000 on 11th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £410,039 over the eleven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HEATHER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rother local authority area.
• The July 2014 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HEATHER COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2014.
