KINGFISHER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five KINGFISHER COTTAGE sales between June 1997 and September 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 June 2015 sale was for 78% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 78% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 53% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% below the HPI.

What might KINGFISHER COTTAGE be worth now?

KINGFISHER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £253,468.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.2%, between September 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KINGFISHER COTTAGE of £219,950 on 30th September 2021. For the value to have increased from £219,950 to £253,468 over the four years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KINGFISHER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The September 2021 sale price of £219,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
