LOVE LIES COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stratford-on-Avon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LOVE LIES COTTAGE sales from January 2003 and June 2008 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 January 2003 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the June 2008 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might LOVE LIES COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 63.2%, between June 2008 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stratford-on-Avon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 63.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LOVE LIES COTTAGE of £425,000 on 6th June 2008. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £693,635 over the seventeen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
