LAUREL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LAUREL COTTAGE sales from September 2013 and May 2015 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 2013 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might LAUREL COTTAGE be worth now?

LAUREL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £481,402.

This is based on house price inflation of 41.6%, between May 2015 and February 2025, for 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 41.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LAUREL COTTAGE of £340,000 on 22nd May 2015. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £481,402 over the ten years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LAUREL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area.
• The May 2015 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LAUREL COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2015.
