IVY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three IVY COTTAGE sales between August 2000 and November 2022 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 2005 sale was for 84% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 84% above the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it rises to 118% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 118% above the HPI.

What might IVY COTTAGE be worth now?

IVY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,097,098.

This is based on house price deflation of 4.6%, between November 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.6% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for IVY COTTAGE of £1,150,000 on 23rd November 2022. For the value to have decreased from £1,150,000 to £1,097,098 over the three years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of IVY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Colchester local authority area.
• The November 2022 sale price of £1,150,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of IVY COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2022.
