LAWN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Luton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LAWN COTTAGE sales from July 1997 and June 2011 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 1997 sale was for 122% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 122% above the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it falls to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might LAWN COTTAGE be worth now?

LAWN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £771,979.

This is based on house price inflation of 94%, between June 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Luton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LAWN COTTAGE of £398,000 on 21st June 2011. For the value to have increased from £398,000 to £771,979 over the fourteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LAWN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Luton local authority area.
• The June 2011 sale price of £398,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LAWN COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2011.
