HOVINGTON 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 three HOVINGTON COTTAGE sales between October 1996 and August 2009 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 September 1999 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 66% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% above the HPI.

What might HOVINGTON COTTAGE be worth now?

HOVINGTON COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £862,907.

This is based on house price inflation of 76.1%, between August 2009 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 76.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOVINGTON COTTAGE of £490,000 on 27th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £490,000 to £862,907 over the sixteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOVINGTON COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The August 2009 sale price of £490,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOVINGTON COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2009.
