LILAC COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LILAC COTTAGE sales from May 2000 and September 2012 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 May 2000 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it falls to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might LILAC COTTAGE be worth now?

LILAC COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £407,098.

This is based on house price inflation of 62.8%, between September 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 62.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LILAC COTTAGE of £250,000 on 14th September 2012. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £407,098 over the thirteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LILAC COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Suffolk local authority area.
• The September 2012 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LILAC COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2012.
