HOLLY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HOLLY COTTAGE sales between August 1999 and August 2021 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 2001 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might HOLLY COTTAGE be worth now?

HOLLY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £282,425.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.7%, between August 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOLLY COTTAGE of £240,000 on 2nd August 2021. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £282,425 over the four years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
