LAVENDER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LAVENDER COTTAGE sales from July 2002 and November 2014 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 July 2002 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might LAVENDER COTTAGE be worth now?

LAVENDER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £420,922.

This is based on house price inflation of 75.4%, between November 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bridgend local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 75.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LAVENDER COTTAGE of £240,000 on 7th November 2014. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £420,922 over the nine years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
