HOLLYHOCK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HOLLYHOCK COTTAGE sales from May 1996 and February 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 May 1996 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, which was also at 50% above the HPI.

What might HOLLYHOCK COTTAGE be worth now?

HOLLYHOCK COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £579,109.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.4%, between February 2021 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOLLYHOCK COTTAGE of £485,000 on 24th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £579,109 over the four years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOLLYHOCK COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £485,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
