LOUNT FARM COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North West Leicestershire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LOUNT FARM COTTAGE sales between August 1997 and March 2021 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 October 2015 sale was for 48% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 93% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 93% above the HPI.

What might LOUNT FARM COTTAGE be worth now?

LOUNT FARM COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £768,156.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.9%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North West Leicestershire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 22.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LOUNT FARM COTTAGE of £625,000 on 29th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £768,156 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
