LITTLE SOMBORNE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four LITTLE SOMBORNE COTTAGE sales between May 1996 and November 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 June 2005 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the November 2012 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might LITTLE SOMBORNE COTTAGE be worth now?

LITTLE SOMBORNE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £826,217.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.9%, between November 2012 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLE SOMBORNE COTTAGE of £530,000 on 20th November 2012. For the value to have increased from £530,000 to £826,217 over the thirteen years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLE SOMBORNE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the New Forest local authority area.
• The November 2012 sale price of £530,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
